Olympic ace Adam Peaty missed out on the medal places on Sunday as England's James Wilby instead starred in 100-metre breaststroke final at the 2022 Commonwealth Games.
Three-time Olympic gold medallist Peaty came into Sunday's decider with a qualifying time almost a full second faster than any other swimmer. However, the 27-year-old failed to sustain his fine start as Wilby touched the wall in 59.25 seconds to snatch the gold at Sandwell Aquatics Centre.
Peaty came into the Commonwealth Games after recovering from a serious foot injury but had looked back to his best before Sunday. He finished fourth, however, while the Australian duo of Zac Stubblety-Cook and Sam Williamson claimed silver and bronze, respectively.
