Commonwealth Games: Eilish McColgan to carry Scotland flag at closing ceremony


Birmingham 2022 gold medallist Eilish McColgan will carry the Scotland flag at Monday’s Commonwealth Games closing ceremony at Alexander Stadium.

McColgan won the 10,000m on Wednesday in a Games record amid emotional scenes, as she emulated the achievement of mother Liz in 1986 and 1990.

The 31-year-old will run again in the 5000m final on Sunday.

McColgan, competing at her third Commonwealth Games, said the honour “tops off an already amazing week”.
