Arshad Nadeem Gives Pakistan First Javelin Gold At Commonwealth Games
Arshad Nadeem, wearing strapping around his right arm, gave the Asian nation their first javelin gold with a Games record mark of 90.18 metres. Nigeria's Ese Brume won the women's long jump competition, leaping 7.00m. Despite the fierce competition, though there was still room for sentiment between rivals. Matthew Hudson-Smith was at such a low ebb last year he attempted to commit suicide but looked set for gold in the men's 400m on Sunday morning.
