Welsh cyclist Anna Morris claimed Commonwealth Games gold in the 4,000m individual pursuit final in Glasgow before appearing to follow it up an hour later with a silver in the scratch before she was relegated off the podium.
Morris defeated England's Josie Knight in the pursuit final and claimed her gold medal on the podium.
She then rushed off for a scratch race that started 10 minutes later and eventually finished behind Australian winner Georgia Baker but was then demoted from the podium.
There was a rivalry between these Great Britain team-mates Morris and Knight in the individual pursuit.
They rode alongside each other in the team pursuit squad that won Olympic bronze in Paris in 2024.
Morris, a qualified doctor, then defeated Knight in the world final of the 2025 individual pursuit final as she defended her title.
The battle lines had been drawn in the morning session when Knight recorded the fastest qualifying time of 4:25.719, with Morris just outside in 4:25.817.
But Morris produced a commanding performance in the final to clinch gold in a time of 4:24:272.
This was the first time the event had been held over 4,000m in the Commonwealth Games having previously been a 3,000m contest.
Morris continued her remarkable evening by competing alongside Welsh riders Megan Barker and Carys Lloyd in the scratch and somehow still had the strength to finish second before her disappointment followed.
Morris was relegated for entering the sprinter's lane when her New Zealand opponent was already there.
