Bermuda won their first two gold medals at the NatWest Island Games yesterday. Chantae Wilson added to her medal haul by winning gold in the women’s FIG individual asymmetric bars while the women’s cycling team of Gabriella Arnold, Nicole Mitchell, Alyssa Rowse and Zoenique Williams won the town centre criterium.

Wilson won gold with a score of 11.300, with Anna Francoeur claiming the bronze for Bermuda with 10.200. Isle of Man’s prolific medallist Tara Donnelly won silver. The same trio claimed the podium in the individual beam, with Donnelly winning gold, Wilson silver and Francouer another bronze.

Wilson had won silver in the SET beam and as part of the team floor and vault. She also won bronze in the SET floor.

It was a prolific day for the island’s cyclists in Gotland. The women’s quartet beat Isle of Man and Jersey for the town centre criterium title, while the men’s team of Kaden Hopkins, Dominique Mayho, Matthew Oliveira and Che’quan O’Del Richardson won silver in the men’s race. Saaremaa won gold with Isle of Man claiming bronze.

Oliveira claimed a fine bronze in the men’s individual town centre criterium. Karl Patrick Lauk won gold for Saaremaa in 1:00:12.78, edging Torkil Eyofinsson Veyhe, of Faroe Islands, who had the same time. Oliveira finished with 1:00:56.04. Mayho finished fifth in the race, with Hopkins seventh for Bermuda.

In tennis, Gavin Manders and David Thomas won silver in the men’s doubles, losing 6-3, 6-0 to Jersey’s Stuart Parker and Michael Watkins in the final.

In golf, the men’s and women’s teams came agonisingly short of medals.

The men’s team of James Campbell, Jarryd Dillas, Will Haddrell and Mark Phillips came fourth after shooting a combined 932 over the four rounds, missing bronze by six combined strokes. Isle of Man won gold, shooting 900; Jersey won silver with 916 and Gotland claimed third spot with 926.

The women’s team of Katrin Burnie, Linda Down, Elizabeth Parsons and Tariqah Walikraam also missed out by six strokes, shooting 1033. Gotland won gold in 1009, Isle of Wight silver with 1019 and Jersey bronze with 1027.

Dillas finished fifth in the men’s individual event — his 302 was only one shot off a medal and just three off gold medal-winner Alex McAuley, of Isle of Man.

Parsons came fifth in the women’s individual, with 336. Emma Lindman won gold for Aland, going round in 317 to win by nine strokes.
