Blessing Okagbare stormed to victory with a time of 10.85s in the women's 100m final at the Commonwealth Games this evening.
The Nigerian raced beyond Veronica Campbell-Brown in the second half to comfortably take the gold at Hampden Park.
"I'm so excited right now," she told BBC Sport. "I'm just happy I was here to put on a show.
"The difference was the execution and stay patient the coach was like 'I don't want you to go out there and rush anything. Stay as patient as you can'. And that was what I did, and after 70m it just got a lot easier."
Campbell-Brown eventually finished with the silver, and England's Aisha Philip, who finished fourth, said that she was proud of her own effort.
"It definitely is [a cruel position], fourth is always first loser as they say," said Philip. "But the fact that I can compete with these girls, I know that there's a lot more to come. I'm so proud of myself. I'll take it on the chin and say 'that was a really good race'
"It's my first Commonwealth Games, and my cousins are here playing netball, so I can take that."
The men's final takes place later this evening.
