at Hampden Park where Laura Weightman has just won silver for | :00:57. | :00:59. | |
England. What a brilliant performance from her. She is | :01:00. | :01:06. | |
overjoyed with that success. You can see that clearly. And somebody else | :01:07. | :01:13. | |
who is overjoyed as her coach, and our commentator, Steve Cram. Tell us | :01:14. | :01:22. | |
your emotions, not just on coaching her but the fact that you | :01:23. | :01:26. | |
commentator and whilst she won a silver medal? | :01:27. | :01:42. | |
She is a toff athlete. -- tough. A really good example of somebody who | :01:43. | :01:46. | |
has worked hard over the years. Her attitude is always 100%. She has | :01:47. | :01:55. | |
been improving year-on-year. The Olympics were a massive experience | :01:56. | :02:00. | |
for her and two years and she has won a medal here at Hampden Stadium. | :02:01. | :02:06. | |
I knew perhaps surprised at the performance? | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
Not in the sense of how gutsy she was. She felt terrible after the | :02:13. | :02:19. | |
heats so we chatted today about discarding that. The runners from | :02:20. | :02:24. | |
Kenny, they are amongst the best in the world, but we talked about how | :02:25. | :02:36. | |
you have to be prepared for somebody not running to 100% of their | :02:37. | :02:45. | |
ability, and the hats Obiri didn't. -- perhaps. But Laura is a real | :02:46. | :02:56. | |
scrapper who will always give 100%. What I will tell her off about is | :02:57. | :03:00. | |
watching the screen as she came down the home straight! Look at the | :03:01. | :03:12. | |
delight on her face. She went to the front early. She | :03:13. | :03:18. | |
went down that inside lane. Were those the tactics she discussed? | :03:19. | :03:27. | |
The race was slow with 700 to go, and you need to get close to the | :03:28. | :03:31. | |
front. She made a great move to get on the shoulder. When she saw an | :03:32. | :03:35. | |
opportunity to just hold that position, the last 500, you need to | :03:36. | :03:41. | |
hold it. You cannot have people coming around you. Her family have | :03:42. | :03:50. | |
been up here. Diane has got the bug also and started running ten K since | :03:51. | :03:56. | |
Laura began doing so well. Her little brother did a training | :03:57. | :04:00. | |
session with a couple of weeks ago. They have all pitched in. The whole | :04:01. | :04:07. | |
of Northumberland will be proud. The local newspaper had a poster. | :04:08. | :04:14. | |
We can bring in Paula Radcliffe. She watched intently. What did you make | :04:15. | :04:19. | |
of it? I really happy. And well done to | :04:20. | :04:26. | |
coach Steve Cram for not just coaching but managing to commentate | :04:27. | :04:30. | |
on that! How many times did she dig deep? She had to really do so down | :04:31. | :04:38. | |
the back straight to hold the position. And then to fight again | :04:39. | :04:43. | |
around the bend. Here we see her coming up to the Dell. She is trying | :04:44. | :04:50. | |
to hold her position. She knows they are all queueing up behind her. She | :04:51. | :04:59. | |
needs to keep Kibiegon wide and is pushing hard. She does not panic. | :05:00. | :05:07. | |
She can probably feel Laura Muir on her outside. At this stage she is | :05:08. | :05:15. | |
really hurting but she is just so strong. The big thing is the work | :05:16. | :05:20. | |
she has put in over the winter on her strength and endurance, and to | :05:21. | :05:26. | |
put in back-to-back races, when the heats yesterday were so fast. You | :05:27. | :05:33. | |
can see that the fatigue is just catching up with more your, she does | :05:34. | :05:38. | |
not quite have the insurance of Weightman -- endurance. But she is | :05:39. | :05:49. | |
not using off at all. She knows that the medal is not hers until she | :05:50. | :05:56. | |
crosses the line. An incredibly gritty performance. | :05:57. | :06:02. | |
She just hung in. She did. She was kicking had at that | :06:03. | :06:09. | |
point. As Steve said she knew she was up against two of the best 1500 | :06:10. | :06:17. | |
metres runners around. And her colleagues, Laura Muir of Scotland, | :06:18. | :06:33. | |
and Hannah England, she was just holding on down that home straight, | :06:34. | :06:38. | |
just trying to maintain her form and stay strong. When she crossed the | :06:39. | :06:44. | |
line, the relief and adrenaline of that well earned a silver medal. | :06:45. | :06:52. | |
Steve Cram can give the official result of the 1500 metres. All | :06:53. | :07:02. | |
yours! Kibiegon, taking the Commonwealth | :07:03. | :07:09. | |
title for Kenya. A brilliant silver medal for England's Laura | :07:10. | :07:23. | |
Weightman, and a surprise bronze medal for Kate Van Buskirk of | :07:24. | :07:40. | |
Canada. And in the final result of the | :07:41. | :07:42. | |
men's hammer: Great stuff. We will try to hear | :07:43. | :08:13. | |
from Laura Weightman in the 20 minutes we have on air. First, | :08:14. | :08:18. | |
Greco-Roman wrestling has been dropped from the programme, which is | :08:19. | :08:22. | |
a shame, because in ancient Greece, they would fight coated in all of | :08:23. | :08:28. | |
oil to protect them from the sun, although that may not have been | :08:29. | :08:33. | |
necessary here! But we do have freestyle wrestling. | :08:34. | :08:44. | |
That was a warning to the Indian for passivity. The court has come up, if | :08:45. | :08:57. | |
the Indian does not score a point in the next 20 seconds, the opponent | :08:58. | :09:05. | |
will be giving a point. New rules to encourage the fighters | :09:06. | :09:11. | |
to attack, but the Indian was deemed to be passive. | :09:12. | :09:21. | |
You just need to defend. 6-4. That is the end of round one. Vinesh, | :09:22. | :09:36. | |
leading at the halfway point. I do not understand that, with so | :09:37. | :09:41. | |
little time left on the clock. She would have taken the point and been | :09:42. | :09:47. | |
in the lead. Here is the throne. Excellent, driving ahead. -- here is | :09:48. | :09:58. | |
the throw. Back out for the second period. | :09:59. | :10:02. | |
Three minutes to decide the gold medal. The woman's 48 K class. | :10:03. | :10:18. | |
Vinesh, the Indian, two points up. She might not have a track record of | :10:19. | :10:24. | |
doing well at major championships, Vinesh, but her sisters are both | :10:25. | :10:30. | |
medallists, so that says a lot, it runs in the family. The Indian looks | :10:31. | :10:50. | |
stronger at the moment, but there's plenty of time left on the clock. | :10:51. | :11:00. | |
She comes in for an attack, but does not get the score. Just under two | :11:01. | :11:09. | |
minutes to go in this gold medal match. | :11:10. | :11:30. | |
Vinesh, the youngster, growing in confidence. | :11:31. | :11:45. | |
She looks strong, doesn't she? She is just going to defend her lead. It | :11:46. | :11:50. | |
does not matter if she gets penalised... But she has got the | :11:51. | :11:55. | |
league again and takes her down for four Mac point! -- got the leg. | :11:56. | :12:08. | |
She is going to get her onto her back! It will go to 10-8. | :12:09. | :12:20. | |
Is that another reversal? Three points in it. 50 seconds to go in | :12:21. | :12:27. | |
this gold medal match, can the Englishwoman pool out of this and | :12:28. | :12:31. | |
score the three points that she needs? The referee will bring them | :12:32. | :12:41. | |
back to their feet, which is good news for England, she needs every | :12:42. | :12:48. | |
second to get something back here. They are giving it their all, they | :12:49. | :12:55. | |
are so fit, these athletes. She has got 30 seconds. She needs to get out | :12:56. | :13:02. | |
of there, she needs three points. She spins around for the take-down, | :13:03. | :13:08. | |
she needs to get her onto her back and start scoring. The Indian | :13:09. | :13:26. | |
hanging on for her life. Rattigen, running out of time... And the | :13:27. | :13:37. | |
Indian has done it picks -- and the hopes and dreams of Rattigen turned | :13:38. | :13:51. | |
into silver. Vinesh, like we say, it runs in the family. She has done | :13:52. | :14:05. | |
it, two out of two for India. Rattigen, she looks devastated, I | :14:06. | :14:10. | |
don't know why she went in for that throw which gave two points away. | :14:11. | :14:25. | |
Weightman, who we are hoping to hear from shortly, though she is busy | :14:26. | :14:29. | |
doing a selfie for everyone in the crowd, and shots taken as well, but | :14:30. | :14:34. | |
terrific effort for Laura. She got a silver medal and apparently is | :14:35. | :14:38. | |
trending worldwide on Twitter. And why not? Great performance. | :14:39. | :14:44. | |
Weightlifting and the first officially organised competition | :14:45. | :14:49. | |
took place in 1877. The first British champion was Scott Lumsden | :14:50. | :14:55. | |
Elliott who won with a one-handed lift. History does not reveal what | :14:56. | :15:01. | |
he did with his other hand. -- Launceston Elliott. It has been 52 | :15:02. | :15:08. | |
years since Scotland last won gold at the Commonwealth Games. But | :15:09. | :15:14. | |
Brightman who won Silva for my three years ago was going for gold. | :15:15. | :15:24. | |
This is where we need to see the head and heart under the bar. We | :15:25. | :15:39. | |
sort of know already that the gold is beyond him. It will be | :15:40. | :15:44. | |
America... Let's get this done. This lift is the only one that | :15:45. | :16:01. | |
matters to him today. He did his best. I'm just thinking that maybe | :16:02. | :16:12. | |
the occasion, maybe the presence, maybe the fans and family, goodness | :16:13. | :16:18. | |
knows, but something got to him, because we know that Peter Kirkbride | :16:19. | :16:24. | |
can do this almost on any day of the week. Only three men left in this | :16:25. | :16:31. | |
competition, so they are all medal... They are all on the podium. | :16:32. | :16:39. | |
It is a question of what colour. Absolutely. This athlete is almost | :16:40. | :16:51. | |
overlooked in this competition but he is making progress lift by lift. | :16:52. | :16:59. | |
Well... What a dance, and he held it. Not easy during those kind of | :17:00. | :17:29. | |
dances to save weight. So what the Indian has decided is this is what | :17:30. | :17:35. | |
our man can do, let's do it and let them see how brave and good these | :17:36. | :17:42. | |
other two guys are. Yes, let's push them into uncomfortable territory. | :17:43. | :17:46. | |
And the man from Papua New Guinea has not got a score on the board | :17:47. | :17:58. | |
yet. Anything can still happen. This with the full five out of six for | :17:59. | :17:59. | |
the lead. He can't stand up. So hard. He was | :18:00. | :18:11. | |
trying to bounce to get out of it. Just no way to generate the force | :18:12. | :18:20. | |
from that position. Stephen now has to put his chips on the table. | :18:21. | :18:30. | |
A little off on the timing that you can see this weight is not his | :18:31. | :18:40. | |
maximum. Doesn't happen with maximum weights every day. What an amazing | :18:41. | :18:50. | |
lift there. 344, first place. So eight kilograms go on. | :18:51. | :19:08. | |
Brilliant recovery. Very patient. Come on! Fantastic. And another | :19:09. | :19:24. | |
amazing celebration dance. When champions are asked, champions | :19:25. | :19:29. | |
deliver. So he's doing exactly what he needs and no more. | :19:30. | :19:34. | |
What the fight. That was the most spectacular lift of the day so far. | :19:35. | :19:51. | |
The champion of 94 kilos. The jury, the referee is actually saying, they | :19:52. | :20:02. | |
are 2-1 against him. Oh, that is a touch on the knee. That is a | :20:03. | :20:06. | |
definite touch on the knee. The audience is quiet. Here comes the | :20:07. | :20:15. | |
official announcement. Oh! CHEERING AND APPLAUSE We have | :20:16. | :20:22. | |
watched the video and we know that was a wrong decision. I am not sure | :20:23. | :20:29. | |
if it really touched, though. That would be a side view to check. He | :20:30. | :20:41. | |
has put six kilos on the bar. What this athlete needs to focus on right | :20:42. | :20:46. | |
now is not being frustrated. He is probably feeling robbed right now if | :20:47. | :20:51. | |
he saw the replay as well. This is for the gold medal. | :20:52. | :21:00. | |
He is left in silver. And, as he said, he really feels robbed. Papua | :21:01. | :21:15. | |
New Guinea, which ever way you like, whatever you think, came for the | :21:16. | :21:18. | |
gold medal and they have got it. Strong boys, and the Scottish weight | :21:19. | :21:28. | |
continues for a gold medal in that sport. We promised you Laura | :21:29. | :21:33. | |
Weightman and she was one of five silver medallists for England on the | :21:34. | :21:35. | |
track this evening. He/she is with Phil Jones. | :21:36. | :21:42. | |
One of the biggest smiles tonight, yours after you secured a silver | :21:43. | :21:49. | |
medal. Not far off the gold. I do not think words can describe the | :21:50. | :21:52. | |
feeling when you cross the line and you have to medal you so desperately | :21:53. | :21:57. | |
wanted. It is a nerve-wracking race out there and I had to put myself to | :21:58. | :22:02. | |
the front line early on. To go around that top bend of the home | :22:03. | :22:06. | |
straight knowing I was in gold medal position, I was hanging on for dear | :22:07. | :22:11. | |
life, trying to close in so much on the Kenyan who one there. The | :22:12. | :22:17. | |
feeling in the stadium, the roar of the crowd, it is an amazing feeling. | :22:18. | :22:21. | |
What is great to see is that you have great belief in yourself and a | :22:22. | :22:26. | |
couple of searches you put in there, you put yourself at the front in a | :22:27. | :22:29. | |
good position to strike for a moment. I wanted to give myself the | :22:30. | :22:34. | |
best chance of performing well. If you step off that track knowing you | :22:35. | :22:37. | |
have done everything he possibly could, you will be happy. I am over | :22:38. | :22:43. | |
the moon with the silver. I gave it everything I could. You signed many | :22:44. | :22:51. | |
autographs and have many photographs taken. It looked like you enjoyed | :22:52. | :22:56. | |
every single second. I have never had the opportunity to do a lap of | :22:57. | :23:02. | |
honour before. It is amazing seeing the number of friends and family and | :23:03. | :23:05. | |
friendly faces in the crowd that have come here to support me. It was | :23:06. | :23:10. | |
great to give them a bit of time. One of the last photos was for our | :23:11. | :23:14. | |
own Steve Cram. He commentated on your race. He coaches you. I'm not | :23:15. | :23:21. | |
sure how he copes watching sometimes and how he deals with the emotions | :23:22. | :23:25. | |
and the pressures. But I'm really glad I delivered and it is down to | :23:26. | :23:29. | |
him I got this far. Hopefully it is just start for us. Congratulations. | :23:30. | :23:39. | |
Yes, Welton, Laura. -- well done Laura. | :23:40. | :23:43. | |
Women's boxing made its debut at the Games last night, and there are | :23:44. | :23:46. | |
three categories - flyweight, lightweight and middleweight. | :23:47. | :23:47. | |
Well, its been a long wait - but here we go with a bout between | :23:48. | :23:51. | |
teenager and European bronze medallist Lauren Price, | :23:52. | :23:53. | |
Watching this middlweweight clash was Richie Woodhall | :23:54. | :23:56. | |
And Ronald McIntosh. We join it in Round 3. | :23:57. | :24:02. | |
COMMENTATOR: The penultimate round. The boxer just met with a crisp | :24:03. | :24:11. | |
right hand. Lauren Price really warming up now. And London from | :24:12. | :24:18. | |
Deanna with three crisp shots to begin this third round. -- from | :24:19. | :24:21. | |
Guiana. It is a change of tactics, one way | :24:22. | :24:33. | |
of doing it. She needs to spoil P Price, do something to get inside. | :24:34. | :24:38. | |
She can throw her shots when she is inside, there is just not much | :24:39. | :24:42. | |
coming from London. At least she's trying to get in that jab. What | :24:43. | :24:49. | |
London really needs to do is start pushing price back. But here, Price | :24:50. | :24:57. | |
is growing in confidence. She is landing them very effectively. That | :24:58. | :25:03. | |
shot just snaked through the guard of London. | :25:04. | :25:11. | |
That is augmented by tremendous foot speed as well. That brings about a | :25:12. | :25:17. | |
standing count. The referee could have intervened earlier for standing | :25:18. | :25:29. | |
count. Fully warranting a standing count. 30 seconds to go in this | :25:30. | :25:34. | |
third round. Price really upped the tempo at the start. Another standing | :25:35. | :25:39. | |
count for London. Price barely breathing heavily. | :25:40. | :25:53. | |
London has demonstrated to the referee that she's OK. He is | :25:54. | :25:54. | |
satisfied. The right hand of that combination | :25:55. | :26:06. | |
did get through. What a round of boxing produced by Lauren Price. She | :26:07. | :26:11. | |
really did step up a gear and it increased the distance and quality | :26:12. | :26:16. | |
that we have seen throughout this two ox is through Round 3. -- that | :26:17. | :26:23. | |
we have seen from these two boxers through Round 3. | :26:24. | :26:34. | |
The Welsh woman stepped up the pressure and tempo in Round 3. | :26:35. | :26:40. | |
London has been dominated also in Round 1 and two. During the third | :26:41. | :26:46. | |
round she was put under increasing and sustained pressure. She received | :26:47. | :26:50. | |
two standing counts during the course of the third round. | :26:51. | :26:55. | |
She has no answer to the 20-year-old from Wales. She has run out of | :26:56. | :27:03. | |
resources and ideas. She is continuing to attempt to counter on | :27:04. | :27:07. | |
the back foot, but Price picking the shots that well. -- at will. | :27:08. | :27:19. | |
London is remaining committed. He has got to admire her fighting | :27:20. | :27:23. | |
spirit. Price's hands are relaxed now. She's | :27:24. | :27:43. | |
confident. She knows she can hit at will. It would be interesting to try | :27:44. | :27:47. | |
to apply the pressure and finish her off in the fourth round. | :27:48. | :27:55. | |
She knows she just has to keep snapping out her left jab, which is | :27:56. | :28:00. | |
incredible. So difficult to see those jabs from | :28:01. | :28:18. | |
the hip. Those rising jabs. London just cannot see it coming. There is | :28:19. | :28:24. | |
the bell. No doubt about the outcome of that. The crowd delighted. Lauren | :28:25. | :28:36. | |
Price with a virtual masterclass against Teresa London, the | :28:37. | :28:44. | |
19-year-old from Guiana. The winner by unanimous decision and through to | :28:45. | :28:48. | |
the quarterfinal, in the blue corner, representing Wales, Lauren | :28:49. | :28:50. | |
Price! Olympic medallist Nicola Adams is in | :28:51. | :28:58. | |
action tomorrow. We are past halfway at Glasgow. | :28:59. | :29:15. | |
Today At The Games is on BBC One at 10:40pm. See you at 757 tomorrow. -- | :29:16. | :29:24. | |
CU at seven o'clock for day seven tomorrow. COMMENTATOR: It is a 1- to | :29:25. | :29:33. | |
the New Zealand! Gold, Ben Brown, England. He takes | :29:34. | :30:00. | |
gold for England. Going to be very tight, and Riley gets the gold. It | :30:01. | :30:05. | |
is won by | :30:06. | :30:06. |
