Catch up with the 27 gold medals and unmissable moments on day nine at the Commonwealth Games, introduced by Clare Balding and Gabby Logan. A third of the day's Commonwealth champions are crowned in the athletics stadium, where heptathlete Katarina Johnson-Thompson is seeking to add to her recent world indoor title.
South African Caster Semenya is at the Gold Coast attempting an 800-1500m double, and it is over her favoured two laps that she is going for gold today, while fellow Olympic and world gold medallist Sally Pearson is aiming to cement her status as Australia's athletics darling by clinching a third successive Commonwealth crown in the 100m hurdles.
Multiple world champion Tom Daley and Olympic gold medallists Jack Laugher and Chris Mears seek synchronised perfection in the diving pool, and expectations are also high for the Home Nations on the greens as the last three lawn bowls titles are decided.
There were medal events in rhythmic gymnastics, shooting, table tennis and wrestling, plus men's hockey semi-finals and women's rugby sevens featuring England and Wales.
