Australia Wins Unprecedented Mile Sweep at Commonwealth Games

At the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Australian athletes swept the women's mile podium, with Abbey Caldwell defeating Jessica Hull for gold, while the team secured seven track‑and‑field medals including a first‑ever gold for Lachie Kennedy’s 4×100m relay. The haul surpasses the six golds won by Australia in 1950, making it the country’s most successful track‑and‑field day in Commonwealth Games history. forestarrow.rest
