:00:42. > :00:48.Hello. This is Commonwealth Games Sportsday. Missed any of the action
:00:49. > :00:53.today? Well, we'll have all you need to know in the next 15 minutes.
:00:54. > :01:00.Here's what's coming up: Hampden's hero - Libby Clegg wins Scotland's
:01:01. > :01:02.first athletics gold of these Games. A red and whitewash in the squash -
:01:03. > :01:08.England's men complete a podium one, A red and whitewash in the squash -
:01:09. > :01:10.And we'll have a round up of all the other action and antics from day
:01:11. > :01:20.five. Hello, good evening. We're at the
:01:21. > :01:25.halfway point of these Games. It's the turn of the athletics to take
:01:26. > :01:30.centre stage. It's over to Hampden, where Libby Clegg made the home
:01:31. > :01:36.crowd roar, the visually impaired athlete won the T 11 and 12100
:01:37. > :01:42.metres. That warmed up the track for Adam Gemili who claimed silver in
:01:43. > :01:50.the men's 100 metres and home nations' success in the field too.
:01:51. > :01:58.These He's a non-league footballer turned sprinter, Adam Gemili, could
:01:59. > :02:07.this be his moment? In lane four, Gemili roared out of the blocks, but
:02:08. > :02:11.could he hang on? Victory for Jamaica Bailey-Cole but silver for
:02:12. > :02:15.Gemili. You could see what it meant. The 20-year-old had come of age. I'm
:02:16. > :02:20.speechless, really, this is... There's so much preparation that
:02:21. > :02:24.goes into running ten seconds, it's not as easy as people think. I have
:02:25. > :02:29.such a great team behind me. They know who they are watching. I'm not
:02:30. > :02:37.going to name them. I can't believe it. First time representing England,
:02:38. > :02:43.and oh, I'm so happy. The women's final featured two English athletes
:02:44. > :02:48.Asha Philip and Bianca Williams, but the Nigerian stormed to victory.
:02:49. > :02:52.Blessing Okagbare, an Olympic long jump medallist now the Commonwealth
:02:53. > :02:57.100 metres champion in dazzling style. It was night when the hosts
:02:58. > :03:03.had their own queen of the track, Scotland's Libby Clegg in the para
:03:04. > :03:07.sport 1 #4u7b metres for -- 100 metres for visually impaired
:03:08. > :03:12.athletes. Libby Clegg gets the Gold She won Medal. Silver in London 2012
:03:13. > :03:18.now she'd won the most glorious of golds. It is a bit daunting when you
:03:19. > :03:22.know everybody expects you want to win and when I went in the heat, I
:03:23. > :03:29.thought oh, this is amazing. When a moment for the fans here at Hampden
:03:30. > :03:33.Park and what a moment for Libby Clegg, Commonwealth Gold Medallist,
:03:34. > :03:36.the fans have a champion to cheer. It was also a day to remember for
:03:37. > :03:41.England's Dan Greaves, launching himself to gold in the para sport
:03:42. > :03:49.discus ah, head of Wales' Aled Davies. The man dubbed discus Dan
:03:50. > :03:53.with a golden disc of his own. Elsewhere a day of records, Scotland
:03:54. > :03:56.have notched up their greatest Commonwealth Gold Medal tally after
:03:57. > :04:02.winning the men's pairs in the lawn bowls. In the pool a first medal for
:04:03. > :04:05.a Welsh woman in 40 years, Jazz Carlin won the 800 metres freestyle.
:04:06. > :04:10.No record in the squash, but there was an English one, two, three. Nick
:04:11. > :04:16.Matthew beating James Wilstrop in the final with Peter Barker taking
:04:17. > :04:23.bronze. Glenn's second successive clean sweep in squash.
:04:24. > :04:29.Squash is a world of ricochets. Two names keep rebounding together.
:04:30. > :04:34.James Wilstrop and Nick Matthews. -- Matthew. Commonwealth finalists four
:04:35. > :04:39.years ago fighting it out in another glass box. Matthew had barely got
:04:40. > :04:43.his eye in when he had to put his contact lens in. The world and
:04:44. > :04:49.Commonwealth champion would need perfect vision for a pulsiating
:04:50. > :04:53.match. Monster rally. Twice Matthew went ahead, twice his fellow
:04:54. > :05:04.Yorkshireman came back. It went to a decider. The Gold Medal goes to the
:05:05. > :05:09.world's number two, Nick Matthew. The podium was covered in red and
:05:10. > :05:13.white. England's Peter Barker took bronze. In the women's competition,
:05:14. > :05:16.Laura Massaro finished with silver. Silver too for England in the
:05:17. > :05:22.badminton. They had led Malaysia in the team final, but ultimately
:05:23. > :05:25.Malaysia won the fourth rubber to take gold. All around has been
:05:26. > :05:31.frenetic, the bowls competition has been rolling steadily to an
:05:32. > :05:34.intriguing conclusion. Scotland's Alex Marshall and Paul Foster have
:05:35. > :05:37.plotted the perfect path through the tournament, too good for Malaysia in
:05:38. > :05:41.the men's doubles final. What's more, this medal is the one which
:05:42. > :05:46.took Scotland beyond their record Commonwealth total of golds. England
:05:47. > :05:51.took bronze. In the men's triples, Northern Ireland rolled their way to
:05:52. > :05:58.silver. In the countryside, a shootout for bronze in the women's
:05:59. > :06:03.trap. England's Caroline Povey was unerring in her aim. Scotland's Jen
:06:04. > :06:08.McIntosh was unable to defend her Commonwealth title but managed
:06:09. > :06:12.third. Englishman Kenneth Par won bronze in the men's competition. To
:06:13. > :06:15.the pool and a chance to end a 40-year wait. Hope, perhaps
:06:16. > :06:20.pressure, surrounded Jazz Carlin, who could become the first Welsh
:06:21. > :06:25.woman to win a swimming Commonwealth gold since 1974. She thrived on the
:06:26. > :06:31.expectation. Jazz Carlin from Swansea takes Wales to gold, 800
:06:32. > :06:37.freestyle. She punches the air. An historic victory and a Games record
:06:38. > :06:43.in the 800 metres freestyle. A national and personal triumph
:06:44. > :06:49.suddenly hit home. Oliver Hynd was already the Paralympic world and
:06:50. > :06:53.European champion in the 200m individual medley, there was no-one
:06:54. > :06:55.in the frame to stop the 19-year-old adding Commonwealth gold to that.
:06:56. > :07:00.Another gold arrived within the hour. Sophie Taylor was pushed hard
:07:01. > :07:05.to get it. Can she win gold for England? Oh, goodness me, this is a
:07:06. > :07:11.wonderful swim. Sophie Taylor wins gold for England. The 18-year-old
:07:12. > :07:14.had swum a British record to win a race into English woman had won in
:07:15. > :07:22.#40 years on a night for ending those kind of runs.
:07:23. > :07:27.Now let's round up some of the day's other stories. England took silver
:07:28. > :07:32.in the men's team table tennis. They lost to the top seeds and defending
:07:33. > :07:40.champions Singapore. Jian Zhan won the decisive match against an drew
:07:41. > :07:44.Baggley. In the men's hockey, Scotland's hopes of making it out of
:07:45. > :07:50.their group are still alive, after they beat Wales 4-3 in a thrilling
:07:51. > :07:53.match. Parkes snatching the winner. Wales are about the op of Group
:07:54. > :08:00.match. Parkes snatching the winner. -- bottom. Scotland's women beat
:08:01. > :08:04.Wales. First half goals from Allison bell and Linda clement gave them
:08:05. > :08:08.victory. A win against England on Wednesday would see them through to
:08:09. > :08:13.the semifinals. England were beaten 3-0 by Australia today. England's
:08:14. > :08:16.Louis Smith made an impressive return to competition on day one of
:08:17. > :08:21.the artistic gymnastics. Smith hasn't featured in a major event
:08:22. > :08:27.since London 2012, buffer he was the second best performer on the Pommel
:08:28. > :08:36.Horse just behind his team-mate Max Whitlock and ahead of Dan Keatings.
:08:37. > :08:39.That acts as qualification for the individual finals as well. England
:08:40. > :08:43.lead the team event going into the final three events tomorrow with
:08:44. > :08:46.Scotland in second. Among those watching there today the Duke and
:08:47. > :08:51.Duchess of Cambridge and Prince Harry.
:08:52. > :08:53.England also lead the women's team competition overnight ahead of
:08:54. > :08:59.reigning champions Australia, after competing on the vault and uneven
:09:00. > :09:05.bars today, European bar champion Becki Down ey led the team scoring
:09:06. > :09:09.well on her best apparatus. Wales are third in the team competition
:09:10. > :09:15.going into the floor and beam tomorrow. Scotland in sixth.
:09:16. > :09:18.Now, in the last hour, women's boxing has made its debut at a
:09:19. > :09:22.Commonwealth Games, the first round of the flyweight competition has
:09:23. > :09:27.been held with Olympic Gold Medallist Nicola Adams and Northern
:09:28. > :09:30.Ireland's Rising Star Michaela Walsh in action. Our reporter is here now.
:09:31. > :09:34.Ireland's Rising Star Michaela Walsh History has been made here. It has.
:09:35. > :09:38.To be fair one of the names you've mentioned has played her part in
:09:39. > :09:42.that. Nicola add amedz, of course, raised the perfect file massively
:09:43. > :09:46.during the London Olympics. I think, to be fair, this was not always a
:09:47. > :09:50.given that it was going to be in the Commonwealth programme. It is now.
:09:51. > :09:55.It will be for the future. It's in the programme for the Gold Coast in
:09:56. > :09:59.2018. I think Nicola add amedz was a massive star of London 2012. You
:10:00. > :10:05.would not bet against her being a star here, although she will be up
:10:06. > :10:09.against some stiff competition. You mentioned Michaela Walsh, both her
:10:10. > :10:13.and Nicola Adams safely through. And the Irish boxer as well is through.
:10:14. > :10:21.The Irish produce fantastic male boxers, they're producing fantastic
:10:22. > :10:25.female boxers. And the atmosphere we have there, it's unbelievable. The
:10:26. > :10:32.noise is huge. They really relish those kind of atmospheres. Watch out
:10:33. > :10:38.for Adams, but Walsh and Murphy as well. Thanks Chris. You'll be back
:10:39. > :10:45.with us later. Yesterday, she became the toast of Scotland. Today,
:10:46. > :10:50.13-year-old E re-Davis has been getting used to life as a bronze
:10:51. > :10:54.medallist. There's been a lot of media interest since her performance
:10:55. > :11:00.yesterday, when Scotland's youngest ever competitor became the country's
:11:01. > :11:08.youngest ever medal winner. It was really good with the home
:11:09. > :11:10.crowd. Was it nervewracking or does that help you,
:11:11. > :11:13.crowd. Was it nervewracking or does cheer for you last night? I was
:11:14. > :11:18.really scared when I was going on for the heat. I wasn't as scared in
:11:19. > :11:22.the final because I knew what it was going to be like. Were you quite
:11:23. > :11:26.hopeful of getting a medal or how due feel going into it? I knew there
:11:27. > :11:32.were only seven of us in the event. I knew there was a chance. I didn't,
:11:33. > :11:43.like, expect it. What about your parents, what did they say and how
:11:44. > :11:46.Just a huge hug from them. It's been a great day for the home nations
:11:47. > :11:49.particularly a great day for the home nations
:11:50. > :11:53.land marks reached any way, athletes from all over the Commonwealth have
:11:54. > :11:58.had a slice of glory today with table tennis, weightlifting and a
:11:59. > :12:01.bit more besides here's Tim Hague. This is what it meant for Nigeria to
:12:02. > :12:15.win team You'd think he just won the World
:12:16. > :12:19.Championships. It's a bronze medal. Although that is an unusual way to
:12:20. > :12:24.celebrate success. But from blue pants to blue faces, as one
:12:25. > :12:32.spectator enjoyed the lawn bowls in disguise. Yet there's no concealing
:12:33. > :12:37.a rise of chalent. The Indian won gold in the 50-metre final, but the
:12:38. > :12:41.focus and concentration Rai showed was lacking in 16-year-old Kenyan
:12:42. > :12:46.swimmer, who rather lost his bearings.
:12:47. > :12:51.Kenya has the wrong lane. They will have to tell him to get over a lane.
:12:52. > :12:55.I've never seen that before. There was nothing funny about Jake Stein
:12:56. > :12:59.false starting twice in the decathlon 100 metres, disqualified
:13:00. > :13:07.and distraught. No such disappointment for Singapore,
:13:08. > :13:14.though, in bad main's mixed teams -- badminton's mixed teams, they were
:13:15. > :13:19.victorious. This Games is not only about able-bodied athletes. Discard
:13:20. > :13:25.the crutch, throw the discus... And win a bronze medal. Gold was the
:13:26. > :13:39.colour in today's weightlifting though, a tearful Richard Paterson
:13:40. > :13:45.won the 85 kilo gram final. Fugue won the women's. So you're up to
:13:46. > :13:47.date with all the action. Let's see how that has affected the medal
:13:48. > :14:06.table: It's time to look behind-the-scenes
:14:07. > :14:10.at the Games now. Chris has been keeping his eye on the social media.
:14:11. > :14:13.Those Australian hockey players seem to have bagged another royal. They
:14:14. > :14:21.love a royal. Remember the selfie with the Queen from the Australian
:14:22. > :14:25.hockey player Jade Taylor. She's been catching up with Prince Harry.
:14:26. > :14:31.Apparently he doesn't do selfies. But he agreed to have his picture
:14:32. > :14:37.taken with them. Also diving starts in Edinburgh later this week. We've
:14:38. > :14:42.had the team England photo with Tom Daley here. Victoria Vincent at the
:14:43. > :14:48.front, a great character and a blast from the past from English hurdler
:14:49. > :14:56.Lawrence Clark. He tweeted this picture saying, "I've come a long
:14:57. > :14:59.way since my first race. ". A touch of Chariots of Fire there as well.
:15:00. > :15:04.Great pictures making tomorrow morning's papers too. Let's start
:15:05. > :15:06.with the front of the Scotsman, celebrating a record-breaking
:15:07. > :15:14.performance from Scotland's athletes at these Games. Great photo of Libby
:15:15. > :15:19.Clegg and her guide Mikel Huggins with their gold. Adam Gemili
:15:20. > :15:27.straining every sinew to duck over the line in the Moat row. ( --
:15:28. > :15:33.Metro. The express celebrates performances from Adam Gemili next
:15:34. > :15:36.to Ian Bell, gem sparkles is their headline. Chris, we are at the
:15:37. > :15:39.halfway point of the Games. We've had great performances to look back
:15:40. > :15:46.on. What can we look forward to tomorrow? We heard the roof being
:15:47. > :15:53.razed at Hampden. We could hear the same because the poster girl of
:15:54. > :15:57.Glasgow 2014 goes in the 400m hurdles that's Eilidh Child. She won
:15:58. > :16:00.here two weeks ago at the Diamond League event. She said the
:16:01. > :16:05.atmosphere was unbelievable. It will be better tomorrow. She will have to
:16:06. > :16:08.be at her very best though, because the world number one goes alongside
:16:09. > :16:21.her. That could be a special race. Now talking of special, we have one
:16:22. > :16:27.of the world's best athletes David Rhodeshia is here. He's in the 800m.
:16:28. > :16:31.Expect gold from him. That tussle between England and Scotland in the
:16:32. > :16:35.gymnastics as well. Team GB split into two teams, both going for gold
:16:36. > :16:39.as well tomorrow. Great performance Unbelievable. S to look forward to.
:16:40. > :16:44.Thank you very much. That is all from Commonwealth Games Sportsday
:16:45. > :16:46.for now. We're back at the same time tomorrow and for the rest of the
:16:47. > :16:50.Games as well. There is plenty more to come, but today, Wales reclaimed
:16:51. > :17:06.the pool with pride and passion. Good night.
