Looks like Tess Wallace - but unable to find ?

[dannyk13]

Tessa Wallace won gold but she is Australian.

[factor-fiction]

Dan Wallace won gold for Scotland

[factor-fiction]

Is that the exact clue, Anne? Are you sure of all your letters?

[Baldric]

Daniel Wallace was almost ruled out of Glasgow 2014, but celebrated becoming Scotland's third swimmer to win gold by screaming: 'For Freedom!'

But it doesn't fit too well

[Anneyelland]

Thanks all - clue is Winner of a Gold medal for SCOTLAND at Glasgwow 2014 - 4,7 think it MUST be DAN Wallace- Crossbar often have errors - yes certain of letters thanks!

[factor-fiction]

It's unlikely he'll be known as Dani.
Did you get all those letters or have you assumed some?
My first thought was Fran Halsall, but she won a gold for England

[Calibax]

Have they mixed up ROSS Murdoch with Dan WALLACE?

[factor-fiction]

It just seems odd that a crossword would have intersecting answers that give 5 consecutive letters. I wonder if something has gone wrong or Anne has made some assumptions about some letters

[factor-fiction]

Will be Tess Wallace rather than Dan Wallace, especially a syou already have the double S.
She is Australian but the setter may argue they meant Winner of Gold Medal at/from Scotland 2014 Commonwealth Games (someone else said Commonwealth Games was mentioned in this clue)
