Australia have taken out the men's beach volleyball gold medal at the Commonwealth Games and a silver in the women's competition.
Chris McHugh and Damien Schumann beat Canada's Samuel Pedlow and Sam Schachter in a three-set thriller, 21-19 18-21 18-16, while Taliqua Clancy and Mariafe Artacho del Solar just couldn't handle the class of world No.1 duo Sarah Pavan and Melissa Humana-Peredis to go down 21-19 22-20.
The matches took place in front of a pumping crowd at Coolangatta Beach on the Gold Coast.
