England's Siobhan O'Connor won a second successive women's 200 metres individual medley Commonwealth Games gold medal on Sunday.
The 22-year-old Bath swimmer clocked 2:09.80 seconds to win ahead of Canada's Sarah Darcel and Erika Seltenreich-Hodgson.
Aimee Willmott, England's 400m individual medley champion, was fourth.
Wales' Olivia Breen claimed gold with a competition record of 4.86m in the T38 long jump, 50cm ahead of Australia's Erin Cleaver.
Despite three no-jumps, Breen had already clinched victory before producing a personal best and Games record in the final round.
England's Nick Miller claimed gold in the men's hammer as he set a new British and Commonwealth Games record in Australia.
The 24-year-old posted 80.26m - the first time a British athlete has thrown over 80m in the hammer - to take victory on the Gold Coast.
Scotland's Mark Dry came third after throwing 73.12m, while England's Taylor Campbell was fifth with 72.03m.
In the pool Duncan Scott won swimming gold for Scotland in the men's 100m freestyle.
The 20-year-old Stirling swimmer, who had already won three bronze medals at the Games, surged down the second length to touch the wall first in a time of 48.02 seconds.
Max Whitlock was edged out in the pommel horse final by Northern Ireland's Rhys McClenaghan, who won his country's first medal of the 2018 Commonwealth Games.
The reigning Olympic champion matched McClenaghan's score of 15.1, but the 18-year-old took the title because his routine had a greater execution level.
Silver was the second blow for Whitlock, who had previously made a series of mistakes in his floor routine to finish sixth with Scotland's Dan Purvis taking bronze.
McClenaghan said: "The feeling is just relief and I felt a surge of emotion through my body. I was so nervous watching Max and waiting for his score and I felt a bit stunned when I saw that score.
"Max is one of the best gymnasts ever and I remember watching him at the 2010 Commonwealth Games when I was 10 years old. To be competing against him is incredible, but I'm up there with him now and I've even overtaken him."
England's Georgia-Mae Fenton rose to the occasion once again as she matched her qualification score of 14.6 on the women's uneven bars to take gold.
The 17-year-old had reached the world finals at her first major senior championship in Montreal last year and has continued to build on that success.
Courtney Tulloch won another gymnastics gold medal for England as he edged team-mate Nile Wilson in the men's rings.
Tulloch, also a finalist in Montreal last year, totalled 14.833 to comfortably see off his rivals, while his silver meant Wilson won his third medal of the Games.
Scotland won gold in the lawn bowls, with Derek Oliver, Ronald Duncan and Darren Burnett claiming the men's triples crown, while in the Women's T38 long jump final Wales' Olivia Breen broke the Games record and set a new personal best of 4.86m.
Elsewhere, Mark Stewart won track cycling gold for Scotland in the men's points race and Emily Godley of England won gold in the women's 75kg weightlifting competition.
