Great Britain's Adam Burgess claimed Olympic silver in the men's canoe singles final at the Vaires-Sur-Marne Nautical Stadium.
The 32-year-old qualified fourth fastest with a clean semi-final performance and produced another impressive run in the final to win his first Olympic medal.
Burgess clocked a time of 96.84 seconds, only bettered by France’s Nicolas Gestin who crossed the line 5.48 seconds faster to win gold.
It is GB’s fifth medal of the day and comes after Kimberley Woods won kayak single (K1) bronze on Sunday.
