India's Shaili Singh won the silver medal in women's long jump at the World Athletics U20 Championships in Nairobi with a best attempt of 6.59m. She came agonisingly close to the gold medal, falling short by just 0.01m, with Sweden's Maja Askag winning it with a best effort of 6.60m. Ukraine's Mariia Horielova took the bronze medal. It was India's second silver medal -- and third overall -- at this year's edition of the U20 Championships.
