Scotland's Melanie Woods has won the Commonwealth Games women's 1500m T54 for the second time in under 40 hours after streaking to victory in the restaged final - however England's Ellis Kottas could not replicate her silver medal. Woods set a new Games record to triumph in Glasgow on Wednesday evening, but it emerged on Thursday morning that Para-athletics authorities had decided the race should be held again following appeals surrounding a first-lap crash. However, the Scot kept her composure in her home city to replicate her initial success, break the record again, and reclaim the gold that was already hers - in mind if not around her neck. Kottas, though, finished fourth, having said she was "low-key traumatised" when the race result was overturned. Woods led from the start in her home city, although Noemi Alphonse of Mauritius and Australia's Eliza Ault-Connell kept her honest over the first couple of laps. The latter had fallen away by the final 200m, though, and the Scot held off the Mauritian as she was roared by down the home straight by the crowd to finish in a time almost a second quicker than she did on Wednesday. "It was in my mind 'what have I got left?' and you do question what you've got in your arms," Woods said. "But I just needed to be confident I could stay out in front and it was nice coming down the home straight and not seeing her wheel moving in front of me."
