Swimming star Adam Peaty has returned to winning ways in the pool at the Commonwealth Games, after securing gold for England in the 50m breaststroke. His victory proved to be the perfect response to his shock fourth place finish in the 100m final on Sunday.
The Commonwealth 50m breaststroke was the only major title evading the Englishman's CV, but an expert showing on home soil ensured he ended his wait for the victory. Peaty's race got off to the perfect start as he flew out the blocks to take an early lead.
Then throughout the race the 23-year-old used all of his experience to continue his momentum and hold on for the win and that treasured gold medal.
