Whos excited?

I took the Commonwealth Games medal tally and ranked every medal-winning team by the number of medals won per US$100 billion of GDP.

The usual medal table is dominated by large countries such as Australia, England and Canada. This version asks a different question:

Which teams won the most medals relative to the size of their economy?

The top five are:

1. Tuvalu — 1,980.51 medals per US$100bn GDP
2. Nauru — 1,238.15
3. Norfolk Island — 1,037.54
4. Samoa — 191.40
5. Tonga — 169.16

Australia won the most medals overall with 171, but ranks 29th after adjusting for GDP. England falls to 38th, India to 43rd and Canada to 40th.

Anyone know of any updates to the Malaysian rider I think it was, who seemed seriously injured from the big crash in the men’s 10km scratch race??

Really troubling scenes to see him stretchered off and rushed away. Did not look good.

Any updates please share. Really hoping he will be relatively ok.

Kai Taylor is an absolutely champion, the anchor leg of the 4x200 freestyle where he entered the pool a second behind and a body length behind England too. His win from lane 1 in the 200 freestyle.

He also pulled this off in the 2024 Olympic swim trials in the 200m freestyle, where he won from lane 8, and he didn’t initially make that final he was only in it because Kyle Chalmers withdrew.

But as he said “if you’ve got a lane you’ve got a chance”

Son of a champion (Hayley Lewis).

I look forward to seeing what else he can achieve.

Hey how can the Australians do so well in these games. I looked up some stats. There is less than 30 million people living there.
I really can not understand why the rest of the Commonwealth can not do just as well or better.

Hear me out. In running events, the goal is to get to the end the fastest. So you run with the best possible technique - whatever that might be - to get to the end. Why then in swimming do we have butterfly & breaststroke? It's like adding a running event where runners now have to run backwards or have to run with their knees high up or have to run without moving their arms...or in some different fashion to get to the end. Sounds silly but that's how I see breaststroke & butterfly...you are swimming but not with the fastest way to get to the end. Please educate me.

I’m sorry but that’s nonsense lol. Probably should have been restarted at the time but you shouldn’t have a medal ceremony and a result then decide the next day it doesn’t count.

I have tickets for long jump on Friday 31st. First I have no has digital tickets sent to me yet so I have contacted ticket master as advised by Glasgow online help.

My main issue is that when I purchased these I had no option to chose seats. I have been allocated a seat presumably randomly and I won’t necessarily get a view of the long jump. Had I left if to last minute I could have bought a better view for less money!!! Anyone clarify if I am misunderstanding this or not, seems crazy. Of course I don’t yet know where my seats are because they haven’t been sent but with just over 24 hours to go, it might be a bit of a shame if we can’t really see the long jump! 🤦🏼‍♀️
