Summary

Rosie Eccles aims to secure her third Commonwealth medal at the Glasgow Games. The 30-year-old light-middleweight has overcome significant injuries and the decision to leave the GB set-up in March to compete one last time. Eccles, who previously won gold in 2022, considers this her most meaningful tournament, seeking history as no athlete has retained their title in this category.
