Tauranga's O'Dea brothers have lost their beach volleyball semi-final, pushing them out of contention for a gold or silver Commonwealth Games medal.
Canada won tonight's game 2-0, meaning Ben and Sam O'Dea will play England for bronze tomorrow.
The O'Deas have already beaten the English team of Chris Gregory and Jake Sheaf in pool play 2-1.

Ben O'Dea was in the news for other reasons earlier this week after his 4WD was stolen from his Mount Maunganui home while he was competing on the Gold Coast.
