"Team GB silver medallist Ben Whittaker has been criticised for his reaction to missing out on gold at the Tokyo Olympics, pocketing his medal and not congratulating his rivals.

Perhaps a bit unsporting but all through when interviewed he was always very upbeat about winning gold so that he could be "Mayor" of Wolverhampton. Clearly his over optimism resulted him on the day not being good enough and probably his reaction was the result of this and in his mind a slight humiliation. However to win a silver is something he should be very proud of for the rest of his life.
