Gymnast Daniel Keatings grabbed his second medal of the Games to boost Scotland's tally to 39.

Keating had already clinched silver in the men's team gymnastic event on Tuesday and last night he claimed another silver in the men's all-around final at the Hydro Arena, finishing with a score of 88.298 points, behind England's Max Whitlock, who had 90.631.

Fellow Scot Daniel Purvis finished fourth while Frank Baines was sixth.

It was one of only two medals for Scotland on day seven of the Games - the other being a bronze won by wrestler Viorel Etko.

That was Scotland's lowest medal tally on a single day in the 2014 Games but it held on to fourth place in the medal table.

Keatings, 24, said after his medal win: "It feels amazing, especially after being plagued by injury.

"I have not done a major international all-around competition for 2½ years now and it feels great to come back here, do an all-around and get a medal in front of a home crowd."

Scotland's Eilish McColgan, who was hotly-tipped in the 3000m steeplechase, finished in a dis­appointing sixth place in a final dominated by Kenyans.

McColgan, the daughter of running star Liz, said she was simply glad to be competing at Hampden after suffering from a debilitating virus, food poisoning and then heart palpitations earlier this year.

"I didn't think I would even be here at the start of the Games with the illness problems I have had so just to be racing, I couldn't be any happier," she said.

"I think my mum and dad will be proud of me. It's not the quickest I have ever run but it gives me a platform to build on."

Glasgow runner Laura Muir withdrew from yesterday's 800m race following a shattering defeat on Tuesday.

The 21-year-old, who is the Scottish 1500m record holder, was due to compete in the race just after noon but withdrew.

She appeared to have been clipped by another athlete during the 1500m race two days ago and is understood to have still been upset after the incident.

Meanwhile, Scotland's only male entrant in the diving, James Heatly, finished ninth in the final of the 1m springboard.

The 17-year-old grandson of three-time Commonwealth champion Sir Peter Heatly posted a score of 345.60.
