Wales' Matt Richards qualified in fourth for this men's 100m freestyle final.

Beating games record holding Kyle Chalmers of Australia is no easy feat though.

Chalmers has a poor start though...

It's Jeremiah Azu time. The Wales sprinter goes in the second semi-final, as does England's Elliot Jones.

They face very tough competition with Nigeria's Kayinsola Ajayi coming off beating world champion Oblique Seville at the London Diamond League meet and Ferdinand Omanyala of Kenya, the defending Commonwealth champion, with a PB of 9.77.

Jeremiah Azu isn't the only runner in the family, with his brother Alex a 200m finalist at last month's British champs.

Alex says his brother is his role model.

"To see him every day and how he’s striving for all his goals and to be able to achieve them, world champion, European champion, everything, it’s amazing.

He is also backing his brother to do well tonight.

"I think he can win the Commonwealths, anything can happen in the final.

"The goal is to get to the final and then when you’re there do what you have to.

"His point of difference is his faith in God. every day he wakes up he knows he has the almighty behind him, every step, every stride he has the Holy Spirit guiding him through, so I’d say his faith is the biggest thing."

Stephen Clegg, my word....

Not so very long ago, he thought his swimming career was over. Now he's the Commonwealth champion.

No time to rest, there's another medal to be won.

Wales' Ela Letton-Jones was the silver medallist in the 100m.

Can she follow Stephen Clegg and upgrade it to a gold here?

They initially showed Emmanuel Eseme's 100m time in the first heat as 8.38 seconds. That would have beaten Usain Bolt's record by more than a second.

It's still a very pacey 9.89 seconds - the equal seventh best time in the world this year.

It might be chucking it down and the track is extremely wet... but Emmanuel Eseme does not seem to care!

A brilliant run from the Cameroonian and it's a personal best of 9.89 seconds - it's a national record as well.

Australia's Lachlan Kennedy is also through to the final after finishing second in 9.94 seconds.

Two more semi-finals coming up.

Scotland's Stephen Clegg took silver in this event in Birmingham four years ago.

With brother James in the pool a few lanes down, can he go one better this time?

He's already got a bronze round his neck from Friday. Not literally, obviously. That would slow him down.

The sprinters are on the track for the first of tonight's men's 100m semi-finals.

The rain is still coming down onto an already soaked tracks so the time aren't going to be the quickest but the chance to make it through to the Commonwealth Games final is up for grabs.

A reminder that the final is also tonight, it's scheduled to start at 21:14 BST.

There are 10 golds up for grabs in the swimming tonight and we are kicking things off with a medal event in the men's 50m freestyle S13 final.

Scotland's Stephen Clegg will be wanting to go one further than his silver in the 100m event and qualified in third.

But brother James and England's Matthew Redfern were right behind him and will be also hoping for places on the podium.

Spare a thought for anyone who gets a lane draw of one, two or three tonight.

The rain is coming down hard at Scotstoun and it's pooling on those three lanes.

Lanes six, seven and eight have at least got some cover on the home straight from the main stand but frankly you don't need to fill the water jump pit for steeplechase tonight, that's already taken care of.

Spare a thought for the women's high jumpers and the men's T20 long jumpers especially tonight and of course anybody trying to take photos of field events tonight!

Right then, despite the rain threatening to dampen Matt's biscuits, we are ready to go at Scotstoun Stadium with the heptathlon getting things started.

It's the shot put is the third event for the athletes. Northern Ireland's Kate O'Connor was leading the way after the 100m hurdles and high jump earlier.

Filip Nowacki, 18, races again tonight in one of his strongest events, the 200m breaststroke. After claiming silver in the 100m breaststroke he’s qualified second fastest again tonight with soon-to-be training partner and English swimmer Gregory Butler chasing him in third.

Nowacki is due to move training programmes from Millfield to Loughborough University in September, where Butler trains.

This could be a big night for 25-year-old Butler who is looking to win his first individual Commonwealth Games medal.

“That was a great race with Filip, he’s a hard guy to be chasing and he definitely got the best out of me," he said.

“He’s doing amazing things in the pool and it’ll be really good to get training with him and push each other on everyday.”

Soon to be training partners, but this evening rivals in the pool.

The rain has just got even heavier, just as I ran across to the media centre for some biscuits...

To Adam Ramsay-Peaty, "nothing makes sense" following his two bronze medals in the 100m and 50m breaststroke.

He went eight years unbeaten in the 100m from 2014 to 2022 and holds world records to his name but his comeback has been far from smooth.

"I know Adam and he will find it hard to take his foot off the gas," said former Scottish breaststroker and Ramsay-Peaty rival Ross Murdoch.

"At the start his skills were not what set him apart from everybody. It was his raw speed and power. That is the thing that really shone through.

"I don't believe that has gone. It is maybe the simple things that have gone away.

"I don't write him off on a 100 breaststroke. That raw speed will come back as your body recovers."

We're not in Fife but the rollers trying to dry up the track by the jump pit feels very akin to painting the Forth bridge.

They've been going back and forth mopping up the heavy rainfall but it is a job that's never quite done.

It has already been a good month for teenager Charlotte Henrich.

Yesterday, the Welsh 400m record holder was selected for an individual event by Great Britain for the first time when she was named in the team for next month's European Championships.

This morning the 19-year-old cruised into Commonwealth Games semi-finals, winning her heat with the third fastest time.

And that's on the back of a personal best two weeks ago.

Henrich will have to wait until Thursday for that semi-final, though.
