Indian long-distance runner Gulveer Singh scripted history at the Commonwealth Games 2026 in Glasgow by winning silver in the men's 10,000m event, becoming the first Indian ever to secure a podium finish in the discipline. His medal came after a carefully planned race strategy, patience through challenging conditions and a powerful final-lap sprint.
Gulveer clocked 27:49.78 to finish just behind Australia's Ky Robinson, who won gold in 27:48.93. Isle of Man's David Mullarkey secured bronze, while established distance-running nations Kenya and Uganda missed out on the podium.
