Team Wales captain Olivia Breen earned the first Welsh medal of the Glasgow Commonwealth Games in athletics with a silver in the T38 100m final, clocking a season's best of 12.86 seconds. Breen, the defending champion, was beaten by England's Sophie Hahn to the gold.

Breen, who turned 30 on the eve of the final, edged England's Maddie Down in a photo‑finish for the silver. It is the fourth Commonwealth medal of her career. Wales have now won seven Games medals in Glasgow, with two silvers and five bronze.

Breen says the medal means more after battling concussions and injuries this year. "I'm really happy with the performance - I kept myself together, kept my form and it was a really good start and can't ask for any more, it felt really good." She added, "I'm so happy that I got a medal today, it was obviously going to be a really tight race, I was determined, I left it all on the track."

That wait for confirmation of the silver was nerve‑wracking, but it was amazing and I'm really happy with how I ran the heat this morning and saved myself for tonight. Breen has since returned to her captaincy duties, praising the swimmers, gymnasts and the rest of Team Wales.
