Glasgow: England closed their Commonwealth Games swimming meet with 10 gold medals after inflicting Australia's first Commonwealth relay defeat in eight years in the men's 4x100m medley relay. There was another significant victory for England over Australia on Tuesday as 19-year-old sensation Ben Proud claimed his second gold of the Games by beating star duo Cameron McEvoy and James Magnussen in the men's 50m freestyle.

However, Australia still recorded their most successful ever meet at a Commonwealth Games as they won 57 medals to surpass their previous record tally of 54 from the Melbourne Games in 2006. A stunning final leg from 100m freestyle world champion Cate Campbell handed the Aussie women 4x100m medley relay gold after Daniel Tranter won the men's 200m individual medley to take Australia's final gold medal tally to 19.
