Adam Peaty completed a four-year sweep of major titles after winning the men's 100m breaststroke final at the Commonwealth Games.

The 23-year-old Olympic, world and European champion defended the title he won at Glasgow 2014, clocking 58.84 seconds, with James Wilby taking silver for an English one-two in the pool.

England's gymnasts also enjoyed success on Saturday morning, with Nile Wilson winning his second gold medal of the Games in the men's all-around final, and team-mate James Hall also taking silver.

Just one-fortieth of a point split Wilson, Hall and Cypriot Marios Georgiou going into the final high bar apparatus, and the Olympic bronze medallist kept his nerve to score 15.1 and take the title.

Wilson said: "It's incredible for it to come down to the wire with the three of us all in the mix.

"I smiled my way through it and hit the bar routine I knew I could. It's a great feeling to have another Commonwealth Games gold medal round my neck."
