Jennifer SIMPSON - U.S.A. - Silver medal at 2017 World Championships 1500m

Not quite the champion, as the pictures suggest, but Jennifer Simpson went very close at
the 2017 World Championships, when she finished second in the women's 1,500 metres -
as she had done in 2013 in Moscow four years earlier. The main images were taken during
the semi-finals of the 1500m, when Jennifer qualified in third place with a time of 4:05.40.

Naturally the flag waving images are of Jennifer celebrating after the final.
