They say that silver medalists are the sad ones. Third place is just glad to make it to the podium. Their medal may be only bronze but they got it. Silver medal though is a stark reminder of how close to first you came. If you had only been a little bit stronger, a little bit faster, a little bit better, maybe then you would have come first. You were a fingers-breadth away from being the champion. But instead you are a footnote, close but not close enough, good but not good enough. Maybe next time you'll get there.
