	World Athletics Championships: Lewis strikes silver to open Britain's account
		DENISE LEWIS last night won Britain's first medal of the 1997 World Championships when she finished second in the heptathlon, failing by 85 points to wrest the title from Sabine Braun.
		For Hansen, the opportunity to win her first major title could not have been more fortuitous; Anna Biryukova, of Russia, the 1993 champion and 1995 bronze medallist, had ruptured a tendon in her left knee in the qualifying competition and was carried off the track on a stretcher.
		Hansen, fourth in Atlanta in 1996 and the silver medallist at the World Indoor Championships in Paris in March, seemed on course to move up to gold, but a back injury she suffered at the Grand Prix meeting in Nice in July, which cost her a few days' training, cast doubt on her prospects here.
