Muir's time finally arrives as Scot wins 1,500m Commonwealth Games gold

Laura Muir won gold in the women's 1,500m at Commonwealth Games on Sunday (Aug 7). The Scot said that her previous disappointments have only strengthened her.

Muir finished 11th in 1,500m in front of her home crowd at Glasgow 2014 Games. She was unable to compete on the Gold Coast four years later due to veterinary medicine exams.

"I think that I would have told the Laura Muir 2014 'your turn will come'," said the 29 year-old, who won Olympic gold for Britain in Tokyo.

It was rotten at the moment, but you learn from it and come back stronger. This was a huge accomplishment for me. I missed the Gold Coast in 2018, and it has been bugging me for eight long years.

Muir also won bronze in Birmingham's 800m, clocking in at four minutes, 2.75 seconds to win gold, beating Australia's Abbey Caldwell and Ciara Mageean of Northern Ireland on Sunday.

She said, "It's so nice to not only get one medal but two in such a competitive field." "Those girls are quick. It means a lot.
