15 of 18 medals Canada have been won by women.

Lauriane Genest might be Canada's next big track cycling star. Considering she was an alternate and broke the Games record (albeit, for just a few minutes) speaks volumes of her potential.

OMG! 16th beats 1st (and Games record holder) in the first round of the men's sprint

Out of 5 Weightlifting events, Sri Lanka has 3 medals and 2 4th place finishes, not bad!

What a beach volleyball match between and !

Basketball teams Boys: Andorra Argentina Belgium Brazil China Estonia Georgia Italy Jordan Kazakhstan Kyrgyzstan Latvia Mongolia New Zealand Russia Slovenia Turkmenistan Ukraine United States Venezuela Girls: Andorra Argentina Australia China Czech Republic Egypt Estonia France Germany Hungary Indonesia Japan Mexico Netherlands Romania Spain Sri Lanka Ukraine United States Venezuela

So no continental spots for majority of track events.

Ikr... I wonder what the process for adding para-events are.

3 is the lowest I have seen.... if 3 compete only the gold will be given. So if its less than 3, the event would have been cancelled.

Patra actually finished in 5th overall in the rings qualification

Oleksiak is not doing good. She just lost her grandma and maybe that ia affecting her

Wow Ruck gold!!!

Joanna Brown wins Canada's first medal a bronze in the triathlon

Looks like Bermuda, with just 8 athletes here, will win the first gold of the games.

No lawn bowls on DAZN either lol. Hoping to catch the badminton.

You can try to sign up here: https://www.dazn.com/ (this is Canada's rights holder) and perhaps it will allow you. You get a free trial for one month. Also, iirc GC 2018 had a streaming section of the website, so maybe for countries like Italy they will stream it live.

I used a proxy on BBC.com in 2014. This year in Canada we have everything online.

40 mins till first competition

And they are bidding for the 2026 Games. WTF?

"Together we are one" - not like I have heard that before at a major games

They are playing Radio Killed the video Star, what is this, Torino 2006?

Can someone confirm the qualified basketball teams?

Good system minus the part with a guaranteed quota for Oceania. That should be merged with Asia.

Canada's goal is to win at least a 100 medals and a top 3 finish. http://www.cbc.ca/sports/commonwealthgames/news/canada-commonwealth-games-outlook-1.4595025
