WATCH: Taylor Ruck’s Eight Medal Haul At The Commonwealth Games (CAN)

Below, watch seven of Taylor Ruck‘s eight medal swims at the 2018 Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast (video of the 400 free relay hasn’t been posted). Videos are courtesy of DAZN on Twitter, and full race videos (and session replays) can be found on their website here: DAZN. The content is only available to Canadians.

Ruck’s eight medals tied the all-time record at the Commonwealth Games, joining fellow Canadian Ralph Hutton (1966), and Australians Susie O’Neill (1998) and Emily Seebohm (2010). She won gold in the 200 free, silver in the 50 free, 200 back, and all three relays, and bronze in the 100 free and 100 back. Her swims in the 50 and 200 free were also Canadian Records.

It would be nice if they’d show the full races for anything longer than 100m, but what do you expect from DAZN?

Can Canadan’s post here and tell us what they saw? Or can SwimSwam fly us to Canada?

Nikki
