  At the time of the 10th International Workshop on Top Quark Physics
(TOP2017), top quark physics is a very dynamic research area. Thanks to the
unprecedentedly fast accumulation of high-energy data at the LHC during the
ongoing Run~2, statistical starvation is a matter of the past for most of the
traditional top-quark analyses, that are now experiencing the luxury of having
to worry about how to punch through the "Systematics Wall" and maximize the
utility of their data. New processes involving top quarks are being studied for
the first time, and the good old pair-production processes are being explored
in unusual settings, such as collisions involving heavy ions, or "reference
data" collected by the LHC at relatively low centre-of-mass energy. The TOP2017
conference featured 37 talks delivered by experimental physicists, including
seven in the "Young Scientists Forum" where young colleagues were given the
opportunity to elaborate more deeply than usual on their own work. As it is
impossible to do justice to all the experimental results presented at this
conference while staying within a reasonable length, this document contains a
very biased selection, mostly based on the personal taste of the author.
