Australian cycling star Grace Brown has dominated the women's time trial in Wolverhampton, while Rohan Dennis capitalised on a crash to claim their first Commonwealth Games gold medals.
Brown was the women's pre-race favourite and she clocked 40 minutes and 5.2 seconds over the 28.8-kilometre course.
Anna Henderson of England was second in 40:38.55 and New Zealand's Georgia Williams won the bronze medal with 41:25.27.
Brown's Australian teammates, Georgia Baker and Sarah Roy, were fourth and ninth respectively.
Brown had a foot slip to begin, but quickly recovered and caught two earlier starters on the way to the Australian's first Games gold medal.
She raced only four days after finishing the Tour de France Femmes in 20th place overall.
"I'm not exactly sure what I did, but I think the holder let go of me a little bit earlier than I expected," Brown said of her eventful start.
"It's really, really satisfying. I tried not to take on too much of the pressure of being the favourite today — be calm and focus on what I have to do.
"Also knowing I have a Tour de France in my legs, I'm really happy I could execute what was expected of me and I had a good ride out there."
Brown finished fourth in the time trial at the Tokyo Olympics and has taken her career to another level over the last couple of years.
She received a plaque for competing as a member of the FDJ team at the Tour de France and now has more hardware.
"I need to actually invest in a trophy cabinet now, I think," she said.
Dennis flies to gold after Geraint Thomas crashes out
Meanwhile, Dennis claimed gold in a dramatic race against the clock, adding his first gold to Olympic bronze and silver, and a Commonwealth silver from 2014.
Geraint Thomas of Wales backed up his Tour de France third place with a bronze medal, but that came after he crashed in the opening stages of his effort.
Thomas finished 28 seconds behind Dennis after his crash cost him more than 30 seconds.
England's Fred Wright took silver, 26 seconds back from Dennis.
The three medallists were streets ahead of the rest of the field, with Thomas holding a near two-minute advantage over fourth-placed Aaron Gate of New Zealand.
Australia's Lucas Plapp finished fifth.
