Wales' Ben Llewellin just missed out on a Commonwealth Games gold medal to Cypriot Georgios Achilleos in the men's skeet shooting.

Llewellin, whose father David is a former British rally champion, hit 56 of his 60 targets to clinch silver.

The 23-year-old's performance prompted Achilleos to produce a Games record total of 57 to take gold.

Northern Ireland's Gareth McAuley, 25, took bronze by hitting 45 out of his 50 targets on the Gold Coast.
