There it is! Blessing Okagbore is the double Commonwealth sprint champion. Okagbore gets an electric start, fades as the white line comes into her sight, but has enough in the tank to win in 22.25secs. |

I wish Okagbare will retain the tempo till Rio 2016. There's no reason why she can't be the olympic champion in both the 100 and 200 meters. Who has she not beaten? She has beaten Shelly Ann Fraser pryce, Camelita Jetter, Allyson Felix and Veronica Campbell. 2 Likes |

Pls, can someone explain to me why England has a commonwealth team whereas in the Olympics, Great Britain goes as one team. This is really confusing. |

Afam4eva: Pls, can someone explain to me why England has a commonwealth team whereas in the Olympics, Great Britain goes as one team. This is really confusing.I think a decision was made in the UK to allow the Home nations to compete individually in the CWG to give them some measure of independence. Recall that the other 3 home nations were essentially conquered by England and made to form a UK sovereign state. |
Re: 2014 Commonwealth Games Schedule: Okagbare Wins 100m Gold by Afam4eva(m): 9:13pm On Jul 31, 2014 |
CFCfan:Maybe England made the suggestion after looking at a rare opportunity for them to win a competition. |

If the Scots decide to secede from Britain in September, they (Scotland) will compete as an independent nation in Rio 2016. |

I love how BBC fails to focus on/ interview event winners. Blessing Okagbare...what a lady! Being watching her rise since 2012. Congrats to Brume too. |

Ugonna Ndu competes in the Women's 100m hurdles, heat 1, lane 4 at 9:35pm. Nichole Denby competes in Heat 3 of the same event at 9:49pm. Both were born in the United States |

She has beaten Shelly Ann Fraser pryce, Camelita Jetter, Allyson Felix and Veronica Campbell. Barring injury, she should keep d tempo, but I'm scared of a certain American called Tori Bowie. D girl is also a long jumper turned sprinter. |

That Ese girl surprised me ooooo. I hope this win increase her confident 4 d future. D girl run after winning no be small. |

akintun: That Ese girl surprised me ooooo. I hope this win increase her confident 4 d future. D girl run after winning no be small.Her win surprised me too. Maybe Proctor's hamstring injury cleared the way for the Ughelli girl to win. She'd definitely carry the momentum into the African Athletics championships |

Nigeria came 5th. |

CFCfan:Procter was d class athlete on show, and I think she would have easily won, but thank God Ese took her opportunity . |
Re: 2014 Commonwealth Games Schedule: Okagbare Wins 100m Gold by Nobody: 9:47pm On Jul 31, 2014 |
Afam4eva: Nigeria came 5th.Now let's see if 31 year old Nichole Denby can do much better in 3 minutes time. |

akintun:Also, if Okagbare competed, it would have ended as: Okagbare- gold Proctor- silver Brume- Bronze |
