Former Olympic champion Greg Rutherford has admitted that he is "really disappointed" after failing to defend his long jump title at Rio 2016.
The Briton could only manage a best of 8.29m, as Jeff Henderson took gold in the final round with a jump of 8.38m.
However, Rutherford was unable to hide his feelings as he took to Twitter to thank his fans for their messages of support.
He tweeted: "I truly cannot thank you all enough for the amazing messages of support. I'm really disappointed with today and that may sound mad to some, but I wanted this so bad and gave everything to try and win.
"When your best isn't good enough it hurts and I want to rectify what's happened."
South Africa's Luvo Manyonga had to settle for silver after finishing just one centimetre behind American Henderson.
