The 2014 Commonwealth Games (officially the XX Commonwealth Games) were held

in Glasgow, Scotland, from 23 July to 3 August 2014.

It was the largest multi-sport event ever held in Scotland with around 4,950 athletes from 71
different nations and territories competing in 18 different sports, outranking
the 1970 and 1986 Commonwealth Games in Edinburgh. Over the last 10 years, however,
Glasgow and Scotland had staged World, Commonwealth, European, or British events in all
sports proposed for the 2014 Commonwealth Games, including the World Badminton
Championships in 1997.
[2]

The Games received acclaim for their organisation, attendance, and the public enthusiasm of
the people of Scotland, with Commonwealth Games Federationchief executive Mike Hooper
hailing them as "the standout games in the history of the movement".
[3][4]
Held in Scotland for
the third time, the Games were notable for the successes of the Home Nations of the United
Kingdom, withEngland, Wales and hosts Scotland achieving their largest ever gold medal
hauls and overall medal hauls at a Commonwealth Games.
[5][6]
England finished top of the
medal table for the first time since the 1986 Commonwealth Games, also held in
Scotland. Kiribati also won its first ever medal at a Commonwealth Games, a gold in the 105
kg men's weightlifting competition.

Selection process[edit]
Main articles: Bids for the 2014 Commonwealth Games, Glasgow bid for the 2014
Commonwealth Games and Abuja bid for the 2014 Commonwealth Games


Special liveries in support of Glasgow's bid were applied to numerous subway carriages.
Scotland was the first country to consider hosting the 2014 Commonwealth Games in 2004,
with Scottish cities being invited by the Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland to
consider making a bid. In September 2004, Glasgow was announced as the Scottish
candidate city overEdinburgh (which hosted the Games in 1970 and 1986, and the
inauguralCommonwealth Youth Games in 2000) following a cost-benefit analysis by the
Commonwealth Games Council for Scotland. The Scottish Executive under then First
Minister of Scotland, Jack McConnell, with the support of the United Kingdom
government and all main parties in the Scottish Parliament, formally announced Glasgow's
intention to host the games on 16 August 2005.
[8][9]

In March 2006, the bidding process began, with the Glasgow Bid team presenting their case
to the Commonwealth Games Federation at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne,
along with the other confirmed candidate cities; the Nigerian capital, Abuja and Halifax in
Canada.
[10]
In October 2006, the first voting delegates arrived in Glasgow, to inspect the
city's existing and proposed amenities and facilities. Glasgow announced on 16 January
2007, the 17 sports to be included should its bid be successful.
[11]
Halifax later withdrew its
bid on 8 March 2007, following the withdrawal of funding from the municipal government.
[12]



Glasgow city centre.
That left Abuja and Glasgow as the remaining bidders, with Abuja seen as a likely favourite
due to the basis of its campaign that an African nation has never before hosted the
Commonwealth Games.
[13]
The deadline for formal submission of bids to the Commonwealth
Games Federation, in the form of a Candidate City File, was set for May 2007.
[14]
Both bids
were highly recommended, though Glasgow's bid team had made use of extensive
benchmarking against the 2002 Commonwealth Gamesin Manchester and the 2006
Commonwealth Games in Melbourne and as a result, its bid was deemed technically
superior according to the CGF Evaluation Report that was released in September 2007. The
Commonwealth Games Evaluation Commission concluded that: "Glasgow has shown it has
the ability to stage the 2014 Commonwealth Games to a standard which would continue to
enhance the image and prestige of the Games." This put Glasgow ahead in terms of the
technical comprehensiveness of its bid.
[15]

The final decision on the host city of the 2014 Commonwealth Games was held
in Colombo, Sri Lanka on 9 November 2007 at the Commonwealth Games Federation
General Assembly, attended by all 71 Commonwealth Games member associations. Each
bid city made a presentation to the General Assembly, the order of which was determined by
drawing lots. Glasgow's delegation was led by Louise Martin, chair of the Commonwealth
Games Council for Scotland, First MinisterAlex Salmond, athlete Jamie Quarry and Leader
of Glasgow City Council Steven Purcell. The presentation also included a promotional film
narrated by Sean Connery.
[16]
Abuja's delegation was led by General Yakubu Gowon, head
of the Abuja 2014 Commonwealth Games bid team.
The CGF members later voted for their preferred candidate in a secret ballot. As there were
only two bids, the winner was announced by the CGF President, Mike Fennel, after the first
round of voting, with the winner only requiring a simple majority. The results of the bidding
process were as follows:

Participating nations[edit]
There are 71 participating nations at the 2014 Commonwealth Games with approximately
4,950 competing athletes, making it one of the largest Commonwealth Games staged to

earlier, confirmed that it would not be taking part in the games.

Medal table[edit]
Main article: 2014 Commonwealth Games medal table
Only the top ten successful nations are displayed here.

The ranking in this table is consistent with International Olympic Committee convention
in its published medal tables. By default, the table is ordered by the number of gold
medals the athletes from a nation have won (in this context, a "nation" is an entity
represented by a Commonwealth Games Association). The number of silver medals is
taken into consideration next and then the number of bronze medals. If nations are still
tied, equal ranking is given and they are listed alphabetically by their three letter country
code.
[97][98]

Two bronze medals were awarded in boxing, judo and wrestling, except for Women's
freestyle 75 kg as only five competitors were entered in the event. Additionally, two
bronze medals were awarded in the men's 100 m backstroke and women's pole vault as
a result of a tie between two athletes. No bronze medal was awarded in the men's
synchronized 10 metre platformas only four teams competed in the event. Therefore, the
total number of bronze medals is greater than the total number of gold or silver medals.

Games identity[edit]
Bid and interim logo[edit]


Interim and bid logo.
The interim logo for the Games was first used during Glasgow's bid, with the "Candidate
City" section removed following 9 November 2007, when the bid was approved. The logo
depicts twosprinters woven into a tartan motif, representing Scotland. The logo also
vaguely resembles theClyde Auditorium, one of Glasgow's most recognisable
landmarks. The pattern, forming theRoman numerals XX, also represents 20th edition of
the Commonwealth Games. The text is more specifically Glaswegian, with its
stylised Mackintosh font. A flag featuring the logo was used extensively during the bid
process. The flag was flown above Merchant House in George Square daily.
[99]

Logo of the 2014 Games[edit]


Logo on George Square
The official logo for the 2014 Commonwealth Games was unveiled onCommonwealth
Day, 8 March 2010.
[100]
Designed by Marque Creative, it was inspired by three factors,
time, data and measurement. Its rings are proportioned to represent the 20th
Commonwealth Games, across 17 sports, over 11 days in 1 city. An animated version of
the logo has also been produced.
[101]

There is also a version of the logo in Scottish Gaelic. Arthur Cormack, the Chair ofBrd
na Gidhlig, made the following official statement:
"Brd na Gidhlig welcomes the Gaelic version of the logo for the Glaschu 2014
Commonwealth Games and we have been happy to work with the Glaschu 2014
team in helping them develop their identity. Given the unique importance of Gaelic to
Scotland and the many Scots in the diaspora throughout the Commonwealth, we
believe it should be seen, heard and spoken as widely as possible."
"Given the worldwide interest there will be in the Games when they take place in
Glasgow, a city with a large number of Gaelic speakers, we believe they offer an
exciting opportunity for Gaelic to be seen and, we hope, heard and appreciated in an
international setting. We hope this is just the start; we wish the Games well and look
forward to working further with Glaschu 2014 to enhance the status of Gaelic within
this hugely significant event."
[102]

The full Games identity was developed by Glasgow design studio Tangent
Graphic, the lead creative agency. Tangent's first major project was the official
sport Pictograms, launched on 23 July 2011.
The official website was built in phases, delivered by Dog Digital and Blonde.
Mascot[edit]


Model of Clyde Mascot on Cathcart Road
Clyde, an anthropomorphic thistle named after the river which flows through the
centre of Glasgow, was the official mascot of the 2014 Commonwealth Games.
The mascot was designed by Beth Gilmour, who won a competition run by
Glasgow 2014 for children to design the Mascot. Beth's drawing was then
brought to life by digital agency Nerv, who turned it into a commercial character,
created a full backstory, gave it a name Clyde and created a website for him.
Clyde was finally revealed in a seven-minute animated film created by Nerv at a
ceremony at BBC Scotland's headquarters in Glasgow. The organiser, Glasgow
2014, said the mascot's design was chosen, because of its "Scottish symbolism
and Glaswegian charm and likeability".
[103]

Drug testing and doping[edit]
Nigeria's Chika Amalaha failed a doping test and was stripped of a gold medal in
thewomen's 53 kg weightlifting.
[104]
In the women's 400 metres final,
Botswana'sAmantle Montsho placed fourth; she was subsequently provisionally
suspended pending the results of a B sample after failing a doping test.
