Swimmer Jazmin (Jazz) Carlin, from Sketty, Swansea, came second in the 200m freestyle event, held at the DR SP Mukherjee Aquatics Complex.

She is the first Welsh woman to claim a Commonwealth Games medal since Pat Beavan in 1974, and the first to claim a freestyle medal since Valerie Davies in 1930.

Jazz, who trains at the Wales National Pool Swansea, recently enrolled at the University to study for a BSc in Accounting and Finance in the School of Business and Economics.
