England's Alice Kinsella finally had some individual success to cheer at the 2022 Commonwealth Games after winning the gold medal in the women's floor exercise to round off the artistic gymnastics events.
The 21-year-old had already experienced heartache in the all-around competition, with a fall on beam costing her a place on the podium after she won gold as part of the team event.
Earlier on Tuesday, Kinsella was also forced to settle for fourth place in the beam final, but she quickly consigned her previous disappointments to history with a delightful routine on the floor.
With the highest difficulty score of the day, including a triple-twisting back somersault which she just about managed to complete, Kinsella was visibly emotional after posting a total of 13.366.
Teammate Ondine Achampong had previously held the lead with 13.033 before being knocked down to the silver medal position, and the bronze went to Emily Whitehead of Australia with 13.000.
Emma Spence of Canada delighted the crowd with some beautiful choreography but had to be content with fourth after scoring 12.966, and Wales' Poppy-Grace Stickler (12.566) finished sixth.
Kinsella and Achampong's medals would round off the podium finishes for England in the artistic gymnastics, as neither James Hall nor Joe Fraser could force their way onto the horizontal bar podium.
Both men were battling through the pain barrier of ankle problems during the final stages of the tournament, and Fraser managed to complete two difficult release-and-catch elements on the bar before falling on a simpler third one.
Fraser - who already had team, pommel horse and parallel bars gold medals to his name - dusted himself down to land a difficult double-twisting double straight back somersault dismount, but he stumbled a bit on the mat amid his foot injury.
The 23-year-old's performance was never going to challenge for a medal, but James Hall went largely clean in his routine barring a slight split in the legs, eventually ending up in fifth with 13.900. Fraser's 12.266 was only good enough for seventh.
The gold medal went to an elated Ilias Georgiou of Cyprus, who did not feel the pressure of being last to go as he totalled 14.466, knocking Australia's Tyson Bull (14.233) down to second.
Marios Georgiou (14.133) joined his compatriot on the podium with the bronze medal, but Scotland duo Hamish Carter and Frank Baines both took falls to end up in sixth and eighth respectively.
At the end of the artistic gymnastics, host nation England unsurprisingly top the medal table by some distance, winning 16 in total, including 10 of the 14 golds on offer.
Australia finished second with nine medals, while Cyprus took six and Canada eight, but the latter nation were unable to win a gold in Birmingham. Northern Ireland won one silver in the form of Rhys McClenaghan's pommel horse, while Scotland and South Africa each had a solitary bronze to their name.
