Aberdeen's Gold Rush at Commonwealth Games | Aberdeen News
Description
Scotland lit up the Commonwealth Games with 39 medals, 13 golds—including 4 from Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire—proving homegrown talent can dominate the global stage. Neil Fachie, cycling legend with pilot Aaron Pope, swept two golds in tandem events, bringing his total to seven. Boxer Sonny Kerr earned bronze in men’s 70kg after a gritty semi-final, while swimmer Toni Shaw matched her past success with another bronze in women’s 100m freestyle S9. These champions are raising the bar—and their hometowns are cheering them on—for what’s sure to be an even bigger show in 2030.
