Basildon gymnast Max Whitlock has won an Olympic bronze medal.
Whitlock - tipped as an outside medal hope - scored 15.600 with his routine on the pommel horse.
Team GB teammate Louis Smith won silver.
Whitlock, 19, admitted he had exceeded his own expectations.
He said: "Before the competition I just wanted to go out there and do a clean routine and it was basically whoever did the cleanest routine would get a medal.
"Lewis has done a great job and I'm really happy to get a medal. I didn't think I'd get one so to come home with two is an amazing feeling."
