This iconic image of Brazilian surfer Gabriel Medina, by Jerome Brouillet, has been named the overall winner at the World Sports Photography Awards…
Brouillet took the picture during the surfing competition at the Paris Olympics.
From a boat by the side of the wave in Tahiti, Brouillet captured Medina suspended in mid-air, as if stood on solid ground, as his board mimicked his stance.
Below are a selection of the gold, silver, bronze and special merits across all 24 categories of the awards, which are now in their fifth year.
