Best Answer

To refer to something as second-best means that it is second rate, or inferior, or no better than average. However, to achieve second place in a competition (to be, in the context of the competition, second best) means something quite different. That achievement demonstrates the highest levels of accomplishment, and often there is little or no distinction among the top few competitors except the outcomes of that particular day.
