Australian distance runner Rose Davies became the first woman to win both the 5000 metres and the 10,000 metres at a single Commonwealth Games. She secured the 10,000 m gold on the opening night in Glasgow and then clinched the 5000 m title at Scotstoun Stadium, finishing in 14:44.53. Teammate Jessica Hull took silver in 14:45.01 and Scotland’s Megan Keith earned bronze in 14:49.10, giving Australia a 1‑2 finish.
