I just found out this minute its on. Quick google tells me its apparently Day 4 lol.

Thought comm games died during covid or something. Heard zero about anything to do with the Comm games for years.

Advantage Winston for not watching garbage commercial TV for the last 2 decades.

Kennedy just ran 9.85 legal in the 100 … that’s the fastest white man time in the event also I believe.

I always thought Kennedy was just a super strong 60 runner then fades but you don’t run 9.8s without good top end speed

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

9.85s!!!
AUSTRALIAN RECORD OCEANIA RECORD

Lachlan Kennedy ran a Personal Best (PB) of 9.85s (+1.3) to finish 2nd in the Commonwealth Games men's 100m final in Glasgow.

In doing so, he broke Patrick Johnson's long-standing Australian and Oceania Record of 9.93s, which had stood since 2003.

FLYING HIGH.

Australia goes one-two in the women's high jump!

Eleanor Patterson cleared a Commonwealth Games record 1.96m to claim gold, while Nicola Olyslagers secured silver with 1.93m. What a night for Aussie athletics.

What a backstory: Eleanor Patterson wins Commonwealth Games gold, 12 years after she won here in Glasgow previously. An extraordinary comeback over more than a decade.

Sienna Tooohey wins Silver
Toohey, a 17-year-old Australian who previously won bronze in the 100 breast, secured silver in 30.54.

The Australian team has won gold in every women’s event so far outside of breaststroke, but Toohey represents the best hope for her country in several years.
