A now legendary image of Brazilian Surfer Gabriel Medina, which encapsulates a remarkable moment where athlete, spectacle, and photographer unite in absolute equilibrium, has been awarded this year’s World Sports Photography Awards, which prides itself as the sole global accolade for sport photography.

Jerome Brouillet, Golden Moment.

The photograph was captured by France-based photographer Jerome Brouillet, situated in Tahiti, on the third day of the Surfing competition at the 2024 Olympic Games held in Teahupo’o, French Polynesia.

This photo is among 24 victorious images spanning various sport categories, such as American Football, Baseball, Equestrian, Golf, Racquet Sports, and Football.

The sole Australian entrant in the finals was Getty staff photographer Darrian Traynor, as over 2200 professional sports photographers from more than 96 nations around the globe submitted upwards of 13,000 images for this year’s contest.

Sophie Collins, Chief Marketing Officer at MPB and one of the judges in the competition, characterized the submissions as remarkable.

“Sports photography possesses a unique ability to capture dynamic action and evoke deep emotion within a single image, telling stories that surpass the confines of the playing field. It’s been exhilarating to witness the creativity and enthusiasm displayed by this year’s participants, establishing an exceptional benchmark for the future,” she remarked.
