    Gymnastics - men's parallel bars final

    Early stages of this men's parallel bars final and Australia's Jesse Moore has set the score to beat, opening up with a 14.00.

    Cyprus' Marios Georgiou, the former champion, makes a bit of a mess of his dismount and that leaves him just short of Moore with a score of 13.800.

    Next up it's Wales' Elliot Vernon, who gets a big cheer from the crowd as his name is announced...

    Friendship can go a long way in sport.

    For Chloe Wilson and Shauna O’Neill, that bond helped turned tears of disappointment into tears of joy in the space of 12 hours.

    From the heartbreak of missing out on the women’s pairs final after an extra end defeat to Malaysia, the duo managed to lift themselves, somehow, to beat Lauren Gowen and Amy Williams from Wales 4-2, 5-4 to claim the bronze medal.

    “It was a real rollercoaster to be fair," O’Neill told BBC Sport NI.

    “Getting beaten in a tiebreak in a semi-final when you think you have maybe just done enough to sneak over was heartbreaking to be honest.

    “We worked hard to get ourselves to that point and we didn't really get back to the room until late and we knew that we were up early for this game, so we didn't have a lot of time to come around.

    “However, me and Chloe share in a room. We had our moment, we let the emotions that we needed to feel, we felt them, and we woke up this morning, and we were just buzzing to go.”

    That was one of two golds for England in the bowls this morning with Sam Tolchard putting in a dominant performance in the gold medal match in the men's singles.

    The 37-year-old claimed his first Commonwealth Games gold with a 2-0 win over Malaysia's Izzat Shameer Dzulkeple.

    Tolchard won the first set 8-0 before storming back from 6-3 down in the second to take it 8-6 to secure the title.

    "It means everything. My dad died when I was 15. He put everything into me so that's a long time ago. It'll literally be 22 years on 1 August. He put everything into me, mum as well. I'm so fortunate to have that start and I wouldn't be here today without them, so I want to thank them," Tolchard told the BBC's Frankie Golding.

    England's Sian Honnor and Amy Pharaoh scooped up a gold medal in the women’s pairs in the bowls after edging out Malaysia 1.5-0.5 in closely contested final.

    But they say they couldn’t have done it without support from home.

    Sian Honnor (left): “For us as mums in particular, what we can go and do out there just simply isn’t possible without that support we have from home. That’s parents, husbands, siblings. This medal is for all of those people as well as us.”

    Amy Pharaoh (right): “For everybody back home that helps us in some sort of way, shape or form - whether its support, babysitting all that and to have family here and that support in our stands, to share the moment with them is just great.”

    It wasn't some early morning disco, but instead the venue for the para mixed pairs B2-B3 final.

    This Commonwealth Games has lamped a real focus on inclusiveness. Few sports are more inclusive than bowls.

    And with this new format - two five-end sets - plus the addition of a DJ and a big glitter ball, bowls is trying to captivate a new audience.

    Those boogieing along to the beat early on Tuesday were treated to a highly-competitive, nail-biting showdown between Scotland and England, with the Scots winning after a tie-breaker.
