Gemma Howell settled for a silver medal in the women’s judo 63kg category in Coventry after losing by golden score to Canada’s Catherine Beauchemin-Pinard.

The 32-year-old was edged out by ippon, meaning she was unable to replicate the European gold medal she won earlier this year in Bulgaria.

However Howell, who has endured 10 operations due to her sport and almost retired after missing out on a place at the Rio Olympics in 2016, said she was proud of her achievement in reaching the podium.

England netball captain Natalie Metcalf is raring to go against New Zealand after her side maintained their unbeaten start to the Commonwealth Games with a 56-35 win against Uganda.

The reigning Commonwealth champions now have four wins from four games and will take on the Kiwis in their final Pool B match after a tricky challenge against Uganda on Tuesday.

Although the score stood at 25-15 in England’s favour at half-time, the Roses benefitted from some fresh faces after the break and an impressive third-quarter performance saw them extend their lead to 40-24.

They then went on to wrap up the game comfortably, and Metcalf admitted rotation made a big impact.

Wow! In an electric men’s 10,000m, Uganda’s Jacob Kiplimo storms away from Kenya’s Daniel Ebenya to win the gold in an Commonwealth Games record time! Brilliant kick and a stunning run.

Scotland’s Andy Butchart, who has had a tough year with injuries, gets a good reception as he crosses the line in seventh.

More from Adam Peaty, who told the BBC: “That was the only one I haven’t won in my career, the Commonwealth 50m and I can retire now. I don’t care about the stats, tonight was about racing, who was going to get on the wall first.

“No one can really get up to the rate I get to but without the training it goes nowhere. I am looking forward to resetting and having a winter because I haven’t done that since 2019.

“I am so glad I got that loss earlier in the week because these wins feel so much more alive and so much better.”

A fourth Commonwealth Games gold, and at last gold in the 50m! A brilliant story of redemption for Adam Peaty, who said he wanted to feel like a kid again as he approach his race today. He’s got the fire back, that’s for sure.

Just look what it means!

“I’m a much happier man,” Peaty tells the BBC. “I had two options this morning: I either fight, or I don’t fight. Anyone who knows me knows that I fight. That means so much for me. What I’ve been through the past year... I lost my spark but I’ve got it back. I’m very happy.

“There were a lot of emotions yesterday. Sport is [ups and downs] and I reached the bottom yesterday. I’m happy with my performance there. I don’t care about times, I was racing tonight.”

Peaty edges ahead after 25m, and then holds off Williamson’s charge to take gold!

The set is complete and Peaty lets out a huge roar as he splashes the water!

And Ross Murdoch takes bronze!

This will be short and sharp. A mad 50m dash to the other end of the pool. Peaty is the world record holder at just over 26 seconds.

Here we go! The lights go down in the pool as Adam Peaty prepares to come out ahead of the 50m breaststroke final, which is a gold medal he has missed out on in two previous attempts at the Commonwealth Games.

Watch out for Sam Williamson in lane four and of course, James Wilby - who beat Peaty in the 100m final - in late two.

Now, can the “wounded lion” bite back? Adam Peaty was shocked in the 100m breaststroke final will be looking to finish his Commonwealth Games career with another gold medal as he goes again in Birmingham. It’s been a whirlwind of a few days for Peaty, but he’s got one more race to give it his all. It’s coming up in five-ten minutes.
