At the 2026 Commonwealth Games, Scottish athlete Megan Keith not only won a bronze medal but also gave the world a very touching moment that sports fans will remember for a long time.
In the women's 5000 meters race, Megan Keith set a best seasonal result by running 14 minutes and 49.10 seconds, earning the bronze. As soon as she crossed the finish line, she headed straight to the stands where she tightly hugged her 100-year-old grandfather.
This emotional moment was captured by cameras and quickly went viral on social media, winning the hearts of millions of people. In the same competition, Rose Davis from Australia won the gold medal with a time of 14:44.53, and her compatriot Jessica Hall took silver with a time of 14:45.01.
Meanwhile, experienced Indian athlete Parul Chaudhary could not achieve the expected result in this race. She finished in 13th place with a time of 15 minutes and 08.56 seconds.
Parul Chaudhary previously failed to win a medal in the 3000 meters steeplechase discipline. The hope for a medal for India in the women's 5000 meters race at the Commonwealth Games continues.
Previously, Parul Chaudhary had achieved a personal and best seasonal result of 15:04.26, which she set by winning a national record at the 'Meeting Nicea' competition held in Nice, France. However, she failed to replicate this performance in Glasgow.
