The Indian made short work of her opponent and won the bout to advance in her bracket. Kushagra Rawat finished last in the heat in Men’s 200m freestyle with a time of 1:54.56.

Three more medals were won by the Indian athletes in the weightlifting discipline on Saturday. She wins India’s first gold medal at the 2022 CWG in Birmingham. India men’s team beat Northern Ireland by 3-0 to finish top of their group with three wins out of three. There was disappointment in store for Manika Batra and Co. in the table tennis Women’s Team event as they crashed out in the quarter-finals.

Commonwealth Games: Australia Fends Off England to Capture ... (Swimming World Magazine)

Kyle Chalmers anchored Australia as it held off England to win the men's 400-meter freestyle relay at the Commonwealth Games.

At the World Championships, Yang handled the leadoff leg and Chalmers was the anchor in Australia’s silver-medal effort. By the end of the third leg, however, Australia was in control. England finished in 3:11.73, with the bronze medal going to Canada in 3:13.01. The 2016 Olympic champion in the 100 freestyle, Chalmers did what was necessary, a 47.02 split closing out the race. But with England fielding a strong squad, there was reason to believe this might be one of those rare years in which the title proved elusive. The Aussies were boosted off the start by teenager Flynn Southam, who delivered an opening split of 48.54. From that point forward, Australia didn’t leave the 47s.

“We have the World Championships at the end of the year and then the start of the qualification period for the Paris Olympics. That’s my target now,” he says. But, whenever he had a moment of self-doubt, he simply looked at his phone to remember his goal. He would go on to win another silver at the 2017 World Championships, followed by a silver and a bronze at the 2018 Asian Youth Championships and then finally, the historic Youth Olympics gold in Buenos Aires. But once I’m done training, I listen to a lot of Mizo music. Now, he plans to go home for a few days. But just as his career was shaping to take off, Jeremy seemed to have stalled – his career best total and national record of 306kg was set two years ago in 2019. It’s the first thing I see when I wake up in the morning, and it's the last thing I see before I go to sleep. He is obviously God-gifted, but what really helps is his complete dedication to the sport. Although he was initially at risk of missing out on the CWG, a combination of therapy, pain management, and a determination to make the Games saw Jeremy recover in time. While attempting a deadlift at training in February this year, Jeremy felt a sharp streak of pain along his spine. These days, Jeremy speaks Hindi and English and is conversant in Punjabi because of his time at the national camp in Patiala since 2015. “When the design of the Commonwealth Games medals was released, I immediately downloaded the picture from social media.

2022 Commonwealth Games: Day 3 Finals Live Recap (SwimSwam)

Follow along to get a live recap of day three finals action at the 2022 Commonwealth Games, which will feature stars like Adam Peaty and Kylie Masse.

Although she was over a second slower than her best time, McKeown broke Masse’s 2018 Commonwealth Games record time of 58.63 by 0.03 seconds. Either way, both her prelims and finals times were faster than the 2:22.41 time that Lilly King swam to win at the World Championships. That win was McKeon’s eleventh Commonwealth Games gold medal, as she becomes the athlete with the most Commonwealth games gold medals of all time. It was a full Oceania podium, with Hodge’s teammate Blake Cochrane winning bronze in 1:18.97. After skipping the World Championships this year and withdrawing from the Olympics due to an elbow injury last year, Tai wins her second Commonwealth Games gold medal after taking 100 back S9 gold in 2018. Le Clos took silver, which was his 18th Commonwealth Games medal. After winning the 400 IM last night, Lewis Clareburt picked up a title in the 200 fly, lowering his best time of 1;56.76 that he had set in prelims to clock a 1:55.60 tonight. In the second semifinal, Maggie MacNeil out-touched Holly Barratt by 0.09 seconds, swimming a time of 26.19. However, it was 100 back champion Pieter Coetze who swam the fastest time in the semifinals, clocking a 24.81 to win the second semi. 100 back bronze medalist Bradley Woodward followed suit, touching second in 25.25. Finally, we will conclude the night with the women’s 4×200 free relay, where a stacked Aussie team with the likes of Ariarne Titmus and Mollie O’Callaghan will be racing the clock. The women’s 50 free will be a showdown between Meg Harris, Shayna Jack, and Emma McKeon, the three Aussies that are favored to sweep the podium.
