In less than 14 hours,
the 20th Commonwealth Games will begin in Glasgow, Scotland.
New Zealand is one of 71 nations taking part in the 11-day event.
And leading our team at the opening ceremony
is one of our greatest sporting legends.
She's our living legend.
And she'll be flying the NZ flag
at the opening of the 20th Commonwealth Games.
An honour well supported by her peers.
In the next day 40,000 people are set to stream
through these Celtic Park gates for the opening ceremony.
Another 1.5 billion will tune in worldwide.
Te Karere will be covering the event
alongside 2,500 of the world's media.
While most focus on the big ticket events like this,
we'll be backing our own understated,
yet highly rated sporting stars.
King is one of the first to defend her Commonwealth titles
when the competition begins tomorrow night.
