Botswana finds golden moments in Gold Coast

There is no gold mining activity in Gold Coast, but, heading into the final two days of competition at the Commonwealth Games, Botswana had picked two golden moments. There was a silver moment to savour as well.

Tried and tested athletes, Isaac Makwala and Amantle Montsho, who are entering the twilight of their careers, stamped their authority as they each won two gold medals in the 400m. Baboloki Thebe finished second behind Makwala to complete the first ever Botswana one and two, in a major, global competition.
