Olympics 2012: GB's Campbell wins single sculls bronze

Great Britain's Alan Campbell claims bronze in the men's single sculls as New Zealand's Mahe Drysdale takes gold and Czech Ondrej Synek silver.

Drysdale and Synek pulled away from the field before the Kiwi powered on to seal victory by half a length.

Campbell, who came fifth in the event at the 2008 Beijing Games, started well but was just behind Sweden's Lassi Karonen at the 1500m mark.
