Greek athlete Paraskevi Papachristou strives for glory in London

Greek athlete Paraskevi Papachristou makes an attempt in the women's triple-jump qualification during the World Athletics Championships in London on Saturday. Papachristou, a European bronze medalist, was not in the best of form on the day and failed to make the triple-jump final, managing only 13.40 meters and 13.75 meters - way below the 14.20-meter threshold needed.
