Under a blazing sun, Caterine Ibarguen hopped, stepped and jumped the athletics competition into high gear early Saturday when she qualified for the triple jump final on her first attempt. The Colombian has dominated the event over the past years and is a hot favorite to win on Sunday.

Other events on Saturday morning include the discus throw final without defending champion Robert Harting. The German's younger brother Christoph did make it through qualifying.

The biggest star of all also makes his first outing in the Olympic Stadium, with Usain Bolt running in heat 7 of the 100-meter round.
