NBC Sports and Peacock will broadcast the 2025 World Track & Field Championships in Tokyo from September 13–21.
Due to the time difference, the majority of track finals will air live on Peacock from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. ET, with additional coverage on NBC, CNBC, and USA Network.
Men’s and women’s 100-meter hurdles (Monday, Sept. 15), women’s 100-meter hurdles (Sunday, Sept. 14), men’s 110-meter hurdles (Tuesday, Sept. 16), men’s 1500-meter relay (Wednesday, Sept. 17), women’s and men’s 400-meter relay (Thursday, Sept. 18), women’s and men’s 200-meter relay (Friday, Sept. 19), men’s 800-meter relays (all on Sunday, Sept. 21) are notable track finals.
Masai Russell (100-meter hurdles), Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone (400-meter hurdles, but raced the flat 400-meter in Tokyo), Tara Davis-Woodhall (long jump), Valarie Allman (discus), Noah Lyles (100-meter hurdles, 200-meter race), Cole Hocker (1500-meter, 5000-meter race), Grant Holloway (110-meter hurdles), Rai Benjamin (400-meter hurdles), and Ryan Crouser (shot put) are among the U.S. roster.
Sydney McLaughlin-Levrone and Noah Lyles are looking to make history at the 2025 World Track & Field Championships.
Olympic 100-meter champion Noah Lyles is attempting to follow Usain Bolt, who won the 100- and 200-meter races in 2013 and 2015, becoming the second sprinter to do so at successive World Championships.
However, in June, Jamaican Kishane Thompson, who lost to Lyles by.005 for the Olympic gold in Paris, ran the fastest 100-meter race in a decade, clocking in at 9.75 seconds.
Lyles can tie Bolt’s record of four world championships in the 200m. As of 2025, Lyles is the fastest 200-meter sprinter in the world (19.63). He defeated Letsile Tebogo of Botswana, the gold medallist in the Olympic 200m, by.02 at the Diamond League Final on August 28.
The two-time Olympic champion and 400-meter hurdles world record holder McLaughlin-Levrone changed to the flat 400-meter this year. Having previously won the hurdles title in 2022, she will attempt to become the first individual to win world titles in both one-lap events.
In 2025, McLaughlin-Levrone is the third-fastest woman in the world in the 400-meter event (48.90), behind Olympic gold medallist Marileidy Paulino of the Dominican Republic (48.81) and Olympic silver medallist Salwa Eid Naser of Bahrain (48.67).
Grant Holloway has the opportunity to become the first guy to win the 110-meter hurdles four times.
Kenyan Faith Kipyegon, who achieved a historic feat at the last worlds in 2023, is looking to sweep the women’s 1500- and 5000-meter races again.
The 38-year-old Jamaican Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, who has won a record seven world 100-meter titles between the Olympics and the world championships, will race in her final competition.
Melissa Jefferson-Wooden is the fastest woman in the world this year. She already became the second American in 2025 to run under -10.67 twice in her career, following Florence Griffith-Joyner, who holds the world record.
