Sweden's Stefan Holm has won the Olympic men's high jump final with a leap of 2.36m.
Holm, a three-time world indoor champion, equalled his own world leading mark this season with his first attempt at the height.
American Matt Hemingway took the silver while Jaroslav Baba of the Czech Republic claimed the bronze.

Russian Yelena Slesarenko deprived Hestrie Cloete of Olympic gold by flying to the women's high jump title with a display bordering on perfection.
The 22-year-old Slesarenko won with a clearance of 2.04 metres, then celebrated with yet another first-time clearance of 2.06, a personal best.
To please the Olympic stadium crowd she then had three failed attempts at increasing the world record to 2.10 - 31 centimetres beyond her own height.
Cloete, the double world champion from South Africa, had been the favourite for the crown she covets most - she said before the event it was worth more than a million dollars to her - but ended with silver for the second Games in a row.
Lacking her usual spring, she could clear only 2.02, four centimetres below her best.
Viktoriya Styopina of Ukraine took bronze, also jumping 2.02 but losing on countback after two failures at both 1.96 and 1.99.
White men took gold, silver and bronze in the triple jump:
