Yamile Aldama fifth in triple jump final

Great Britain's Yamile Aldama ended up fifth in the final of the women's triple jump tonight.

The 39-year-old did enough during her opening three jumps to qualify for the second round of the competition.

However, she could only manage a best leap of 14.48m from her remaining three jumps, which was not enough to challenge for a medal.

Kazakhstan's Olga Rypakova won gold with a jump of 14.98m, while Colombia's Caterine Ibarguen took silver.

Olha Saladuha of the Ukraine finished with a bronze medal after leaping a distance of 14.79m.
