Commonwealth Games 2026 TV coverage: TV channels and live stream details

The Commonwealth Games 2026 are officially underway in Glasgow – and they've already delivered plenty of memorable moments.

From Scotland claiming gold, silver and bronze in a remarkable 45-minute spell in the pool to England powerlifter Mark Swan taking home gold after lifting an astonishing 222kg – more than three times his own bodyweight – there's been plenty to celebrate in the opening days of the Games. And with the competition only just getting started, there's still much more to come.

    Olympic champion Adam Peaty faces rising star Filip Nowacki, 18, in Saturday night's (25 July) 100m breaststroke final.

    Elsewhere, the netball competition gets underway as hosts Scotland take on New Zealand, while England begin the defence of their gymnastics title.

    However, the 10-day sporting event hasn't been without its difficult moments, with 19-year-old England gymnast Gabriel Langton suffering a heavy fall after toppling from the high bar and being stretchered out of the arena.

    In a statement, Team England said: "We are grateful to the medical teams who responded immediately to provide assistance.

    "He has been taken to hospital and we will share more information when it is available."

    Despite the difficult circumstances, Team England recovered to claim the silver medal.

    "When something like that happens, you've just got to forget about it and reset. I just had to focus on my routine one skill at a time," said teammate Luke Whitehouse.

    "From what we've heard, he's doing OK. Gymnastics is such a dangerous sport and things like this remind us of that. It's one of those things you have to put out of your mind."
