Australia delivered an unprecedented podium sweep in women's mile and claimed seven track and field gold medals on day nine, setting a new Commonwealth Games record.

Abbey Caldwell upset Jessica Hull to win women's mile, with teammates Hull and Hollingsworth completing the historic 1-2-3 sweep. The men's 4x100m relay team, led by Lachie Kennedy, also claimed gold in one of seven track and field victories.
