The home nations have named their flagbearers for the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony on Thursday. Scotland’s flagbearer is Alex Marshall, according to BBC Sport and Yahoo Sports. The two reports both describe Marshall as one of the athletes selected to represent a home nation as part of the opening ceremony’s flag parade. The articles do not provide additional details in the excerpts about the other flagbearers, the selection process, or which specific sports or categories the remaining athletes represent. Both sources present the announcement as part of the Games’ opening-ceremony preparations and confirm that the ceremony takes place on Thursday. Beyond identifying Alex Marshall for Scotland, the reports align on the core information that flagbearers have been confirmed by the home nations for the Commonwealth Games opening event.
