Duncan Scott

Commonwealth Games: Scotland's Duncan Scott emerges as new swimming star after 100m win

For much of the men's 100m freestyle final, it looked like South Africa's Chad Le Clos was on course to take out the coveted title, with Australia's Kyle Chalmers in red-hot pursuit.

Chalmers was just about an inch behind Le Clos as the pair closed in towards the finish.

But unbeknownst to the stars of the show, motoring along stealthily in lane six and gaining pace all the time, a Scottish underdog stretched out an arm to touch on just in front of the stellar pair, who dead-heated for second.
