Adam Burgess claimed his first Olympic medal with canoe slalom singles silver at the Vaires-sur-Marne Nautical Stadium in Paris.
The Stoke-on-Trent paddler, the fourth-fastest finisher from the semi-finals, put in a superb run save a small error on upstream gate 17, but recovered at the bottom of the course, crossing the finish in 96.84 seconds for the fastest run of the final with three men left to challenge.
