Letesenbet Gedey was leading for many rounds until Oromo-born Seifan Hassan of Netherlands came behind Letesenbet and suddenly took over the lead from the latter beginning only 600 meters to finish point, thereby leaving the shy but capable, elegant longleggie, Letesenbet Gidey with Silver instead of the gold she really deserved.
And So far Ethiopia got 3 Medals : Gold from Muktar Kedir, silver by Solomon Barega, and silver by Letesenbet Gidey.
These results made Ethiopia's overall rank in the Doha world athletics championship to be 5th.

America is first with 18 medals, while China stands second with 8 Medals
Jamaica 3rd with 5 medals
Etc.
