Sarah Clark dedicates gold medal to supporters

Sarah Clark dedicates her judo gold medal to her 'family, friends and Scotland'.

Team Scotland's Sarah Clark has dedicated her gold medal to the people of Scotland.

The 36-year-old, who was taking part in her last competitive tournament, came out on top in this evening's women's under-63kg event in front of her home supporters.

"That is what I came here to do and I have come out with the result I wanted," Clark is quoted as saying by BBC Sport.

"Today, I feel like I have done it because of the crowd. My family, friends have come to see me, it is for them and for Scotland.

"My motivation was always there and to keep the momentum going for Scottish judo is fantastic. This will be my last competitive tournament for sure."

Team England duo Katie Yeats-Brown and Faith Pitman took a bronze medal apiece, while silver went to Helene Wezeu Dombeu of Nigeria.
