Great Britain's Shara Proctor has automatically qualified for the final of the women's long jump with her first attempt this evening.
The Anguillan-born 23-year-old was near-perfect on the board and launched herself 6.83m, clear of the standard required to reach tomorrow's final.
Proctor won bronze at the world indoor championships earlier this year with a national record of 6.89m, six centimetres further than today's jump.
Tomorrow's final gets underway at around 8.05pm.
