Great Britain's Marc Scott won his nation's first medal at the 2022 World Indoor Athletics Championships with a bronze in the men's 3,000m.

The 28-year-old posted a time of 7:42.02 - a season's best - to clinch a podium finish and win his first-ever medal on the world stage.

Scott, who holds the world record for European indoor 5,000m, could only place 14th in the 10,000m at the Tokyo Olympics last year but was over the moon with his result in Belgrade.

Speaking to BBC Sport after the race, Scott said: "It's a great feeling. I wanted to do something for the British team. We have a young squad out here. I wanted to get a medal and show everyone we can do it.

"The race was choppy but I was ready for whatever was going to be thrown at me. I know I'm very strong and I know I'm quick as well, and I displayed that over the last 200m. I knew it was a possibility today and I'm really glad to do it on a big stage.

"I have proven today that I deserve to be on the global stage. There are three big championships coming up and we'll try and get more medals."

Scott finished third behind silver medallist Lamecha Girma of Ethiopia (7:41:63), while Girma's compatriot Selemon Barega (7:41:38) took the world title. body check tags ::
