Marie-Josee TA LOU - Ivory Coast - 100m silver medal at 2017 World Championships.

Marie-Josee Ta Lou crosses the finish line in the women's 100m with
a new personal best time only to realize she has failed to win by just
one hundredth of a second to win her first major international title.

As fate would have it she also was runner up in the 200 metres.
