France's Leon Marchand won a sensational fourth Olympic gold in the Paris pool, beating Duncan Scott into second place, moments after Ben Proud also won a superb silver for Team GB.
Earlier, fellow Englishman Proud ended his long wait for an Olympic medal by claiming silver in the 50m freestyle. Perhaps, though, his remarkable achievement is best summed up by the fact he would be 10th in the medal table on his own.'The guy is a machine' - Marchand matches greats "It has been unbelievable for me this week," Marchand told the BBC. "I am enjoying every moment of it and this crowd was crazy. I was enjoying everything, it was so cool."
Scott's silver also took him clear of Sir Chris Hoy as Scotland's most decorated Olympian. He is now tied with Sir Bradley Wiggins, with only Sir Jason Kenny ahead on the British list, in terms of the overall medley tally.
