Glasgow Commonwealth Games 2026 Wednesday Swimming Full Schedule: Here's when to catch all the races in the pool today - and how to watch
It’s going to be another exciting evening in the Tollcross International Swimming Centre on day six of the Games.
We’re now over half way through this year’s Glasgow Commonwealth Games, with Team Scotland currently fourth in the medal table.
Last time the city held the event in 2014 it was a huge success - with many hailing it as the best Games ever.
This year it’s been scaled back somewhat after Glasgow stepped in at the last minute when Victoria in Australia abandoned plans to host due to spiraling costs.
But there will still be lots to enjoy, with around 3,000 athletes from 74 nations competing across 10 different sports, from boxing to swimming.

And the swimming pool has already seen significant success, with Duncan Scott starting the medal rush in the pool on Friday, winning gold in the 200m individual medley in a new Games record, followed by silvers for Stephen Clegg in the 100m freestyle S13 and Katie Shanahan in the 200m backstroke.
Faye Rogers then took gold in the 200m individual medley SM10 to complete a memorable evening.
Meanwhile Sunday saw more Scottish success with Angharad Evans winning gold in the 100m breaststroke.
Today will see lots of action in the pool. Here’s when you can see all the action - and how you can watch it at home.
