Katarina Johnson-Thompson wins silver in the long jump at the World Indoor Athletics in Sopot

Katarina Johnson-Thompson won her first major medal with silver in the long jump at the World Indoor Championships.  The Liverpudlian led after the second round with a personal best of 6.81m, but she was pipped to gold by France's Eloyse Lesueur who leapt out to 6.85m.




This eclipsed her previous best of 6.75m, set at the recent UK Indoor Championships and bodes well for a great season for her following on from her great performances in the high jump and hurdles as well this year.
