Australia Sweeps Podium, Sets Record at Commonwealth Games

Australia capped off its athletics campaign at the Commonwealth Games with an extraordinary podium sweep in the women's mile as Caldwell, Hull, and Hollingsworth finished 1-2-3. The men's 4x100m relay team also claimed gold, contributing to a historic seven-medal haul on day nine.

The seven gold medals exceed Australia's previous record of six from one day in Auckland in 1950, making this the country's most successful track and field day in Commonwealth Games history. Lachie Kennedy's relay team secured a breakthrough victory, adding to Australia's dominance on the final day of athletics competition. catcross.org
