Lewis was the second-fastest qualifiers while Lane and Harris just scrape in.

On fire

Another Aussie has impressed in the women’s 100m.

Georgia Harris was out of the blocks well and looked strong through the middle of the race.

She didn’t power home as she would have liked but she is a chance of joining Lewis and Lane in the next round.

Impressive!

Torrie Lewis has dominated her heat and puts in a great time.

She comes home first and should have no issues going through to the semifinals.

Explosive Lane

Ebony Lane has made a great start to life as a Comm Games athlete!

The sprinter was out of the blocks with explosive speed and she maintained her momentum through the run to finish second, with 11.50, as she was challenged by Leah Bertrand.

Nketia speaks

‘Fast Eddie’ is loving being out on track.

“I’m happy with it, especially because of the conditions right now,” he told Channel 7.

“I wanted to focus on execution, and that’s what I did today, and hey, we’re here right now. Can’t wait for the semifinals. This is going to be awesome, I can’t wait.

“It’s freezing. It’s cold as, but I’m not trying to focus on that. I’m just trying to focus on execution and focusing on a set of steps and relaxation.

“We’ll do it again in the semifinals.”

He also said he was loving being a part of the Commonwealth Games team.

“I just love being a part of Australia,” he said.

Swimming check

Tara Kinder, Jenna Forrester and Ella Ramsay all survived their 400m Individual Medley heats.

Meanwhile, Iona Anderson was the fastest swimmer in the 50m backstroke heats.

Nketia on song

Eddie Nketia has aced his first run in an Aussie singlet!

He takes second in a fast heat and should be through to the semifinals.

The big man started strongly and powered through the middle but just got mowed down.

Nketia is just under his personnel best.

Browning speaks

Rohan Browning was not super happy with his run, but he goes through as the 16th of 17 qualifiers for the semifinal.

“Hopefully, go through and work on it,” he told Channel 7.

“It’s gusty. I think to your point about the top 17, it’s extremely plausible that one heat will get a massive gust of wind behind them, and the other one gets a headwind.

“So, I’m not sure it’s the most equitable approach, but it’s above my pay grade.”

He had a small cold coming into the event, but says he “kicked it” yesterday.

“I feel like I kicked that maybe yesterday, so I’m feeling good again,” he said.

“I’m happy with the form I’m in. There’s been ups and downs for sure. I changed coaches last season, and it takes time to adapt to those new programs.

“When I put it into context, I feel like I’ve improved on the areas I needed to, so now I just need to figure out the rest.”

Aaron Kirby

Great start!

Rohan Browning started very well but got hauled in over the last 30 metres to come in second in his heat.

He looked to be on track to get the win but tightened in the finish.

The top 17 from the 11 heats will go through and his time of 10.24 should be fine.
