Cameroon's Eseme storms to 100m Commonwealth gold

SPORTS 28.07.2026

Emmanuel Eseme stormed through torrential rain in Glasgow to claim Commonwealth Games gold for Cameroon in the 100m in a new Games record time of 9.83 seconds.

Lachlan Kennedy of Australia claimed a surprise silver ahead of Nigeria's Kanyinsola Ajayi, who had to settle for bronze.

Eseme's time belied the dreadful weather in Scotland as he broke Ato Boldon's Games record from 28 years ago in Kuala Lumpur.
