Australia’s relationship with sportsmanship took an upswing at the Commonwealth Games on Monday night.
Australia’s three 10,000m runners – the Illawarra’s Madeline Hills, Eloise Wellings and Celia Sullohern – provided one of “the moments” of the games at Cararra Stadium.
With the near-capacity crowd cheering her on, the three Aussies – the only athletes remaining on the track – cheered home Lineo Chaka, representing the southern African nation of Lesotho.
