Britain’s Tommy Fleetwood secured a silver medal in the men’s golf at the Paris Olympics behind American world No 1 Scottie Scheffler at Le Golf National.
Fleetwood fired a final-day 66 to fall one stroke short of Scheffler’s 19 under par total after the world No 1 had tied the course record of 62, with six birdies on his back nine 29.
Hideki Matsuyama of Japan finished one shot behind Fleetwood to take bronze, with Ireland’s Rory McIlroy tied fifth.
McIlroy thrust himself into medal contention with five successive birdies on the back nine, but he finished two shots behind Matsuyama after finding water at 15 and racking up a double-bogey six.
