Gulveer Singh wins silver in men's 10,000m at Commonwealth Games

India’s Gulveer Singh clinched the silver medal in the men’s 10,000m race at the 2026 Commonwealth Games on Tuesday, marking a proud moment for Indian athletics. Competing at Glasgow’s Scotstoun Stadium, Gulveer delivered an impressive performance with a timing of 27:49.78, narrowly missing out on the gold.

The top spot was claimed by Australia’s Ky Robinson, who clocked 27:48.93 to secure the gold medal. The bronze went to David Mullarkey from the Isle of Man, who finished with a time of 27:50.28, just fractions behind Gulveer in a tightly contested race.

This achievement adds to India’s growing medal tally in athletics at the Games, making it the country’s third medal in the sport this year. Gulveer’s strong finish underscores India’s rising presence in long-distance running, a discipline traditionally dominated by athletes from other nations.

The 2026 Commonwealth Games have already seen several standout performances from Indian athletes, and Gulveer’s silver further boosts the morale of the contingent. His effort not only highlights his personal dedication but also reflects the strides Indian athletics is making on the international stage.

As the Games continue, all eyes will be on India’s athletes to see if they can add more medals to the tally and build on this momentum. For now, Gulveer Singh’s silver serves as a reminder of the grit and determination that define Indian sports.
