Bowls win

The Aussies have beaten Northern Ireland in the Bowls.

It was the straight sets victory they needed.

However they needed to win by 10 shots and the 9-4, 5-1 triumph was one shot short after a very close measuremeant.

Kate McDonald

The Aussie was the highest qualifier for the uneven bars final and was given a huge ovation when she jumped on the bars.

Her routine looked superb and if the reaction of her trainer is anything to go by, she went pretty well.

She came in as the favourite and looked ice cold as she prepared.

And she goes to the top of the charts with a 14.333!

So close!

Ritam Malik has done a great job with his Pommel Horse routine.

His dismount failed but he was able to save it and make it almost look like a part of his work.

However, it’s heartbreakingly cost him a medal!

His score of 13.333 is just short of bronze.

There were some massive scores with 15.000 putting putting Canadian Jordan Carroll into the gold medal spot.

Scotts Reuben Ward and Cameron Lynn round out the podium in that order.

Pommel Horse

Australia’s Jesse Moore opens the final and was going very well.

However, his legs came apart at the wrong time and he came off mid-routine.

He’s aleady had a big program and has a bronze medal as part of the all-around program.

He scores a 12.833 which won’t get him a medal.

Hot start

The Aussies, Dawn Hayman and Kelsey Cottrell, are facing Northern Ireland in the women’s pairs bowls and they need a big win to progress any further at the Games.

And they have started well.

They scored three bowls to nothing in the first end and scored two more in the second to lead 5-0.

A good way to start when you need as big a win as possible.

Focus up

Earlier tonight, Torrie Lewis made it through to the women’s semifinal of the 100m with the second fastests time.

She then revealed she was distracted from the start so hopes to go better in the semis.

“I could hear a baby crying in the stands and I don’t know, I was listening to that instead of the gun a little bit,” she said.

“So I need to be more focused tomorrow. But yeah, we will be.”

She also commented on the weather which had every athlete trying to stay warm at Scotstoun Stadium.

“It really is (blustery) and quite cold too. Even then, this is probably going to be the warmest time. It’s cold,” she said.
