Noah Lyles says he wants to win "all the Olympic medals" after setting a personal best in winning the 60m at the Boston Indoor Grand Prix.
The American, 26, triumphed in 6.44 seconds, the fastest time of 2024 and 0.10 seconds off Christian Coleman's indoor world record.
Lyles, the 100m, 200m and 4x100m world champion, is set to race in all three events at this summer's Paris Olympics.
"I don't care who wants it. It's mine," he said.
"I just improved my 60m, the worst part of my race. It's dangerous out here.
"I'm just thinking about in 2022 when I PR'ed [set a personal record] and I ran an American record and last year when I PR'ed at this meet and I became the three-time world champion.
"Now I'm looking another major PR.
"Guess what that means? We're coming after everything - all the Olympic medals."
Lyles won by 0.01 seconds from Jamaica's Ackeem Blake, with American Ronnie Baker third.
The World Indoor Championships take place in Glasgow from 1-3 March and the Olympics begin on 26 July.
Britain's Jake Wightman finished second in the 1500m on his return from long-term injury.
The Scot has been sidelined for 13 months because of foot, shin and hamstring problems, which meant he was unable to defend his world title in Budapest last summer.
Wightman set an indoor personal best of three minutes 34.06 seconds, 0.07 seconds behind American Hobbs Kessler and outside the Olympic qualifying time of 3:33.50.
"It felt a bit weird being back but it is good to get started," said Wightman.
"I was hoping to tick few things off today - the win and the standard, and I got neither - so on reflection not the best outcome.
"But you have to start somewhere. I haven't raced in a while so maybe I should just be grateful I'm in one piece."
