Most efficient way in SQL Server to get date from date+time?

I want to update a field with today’s date only but the problem i am having now is it is giving me the date and the time. I would like to update with specific format like this:
11/09/2012
how can i achieve this? here is my current code:

UPDATE MyTable  
        SET Field1 = GETDATE()

One way is to update and select only date (not time)

 UPDATE @tab SET dates=(CONVERT(VARCHAR(10),GETDATE(),103));
 SELECT CONVERT(VARCHAR, GETDATE(), 23) FROM @tab
