Bolt Out of the BlueAthletics fans could well see a major piece of sporting history unfold on Sunday evening in Rio de Janeiro, where Bolt has the chance to bag a hat-trick of Olympic 100-metre golds, a feat nobody has accomplished before.The Jamaican clocked an admirable time of 10.07 seconds in his heat on Saturday, although his sideways glances suggested he has plenty more left in the tank, as shown by NBC Olympics:In the end, the margins were fairly slim for Bolt during his heat, but the fact he made a slow start before cantering to the win nonetheless show confidence certainly isn't lacking in Brazil, per BBC Sport:The United States' Justin Gatlin and Jamaican compatriot Yohan Blake are among the favourites to challenge Bolt for his gold crown, and the latter in particular will be hoping to contend after grabbing silver at London 2012.The early signs hint Bolt will still very much be the man to beat, and a triple-triplehaving also won gold in the 200-metre dash and 4x100-metre relay events in the last two Olympicshinges on continued good form.Kirani James Chasing Grenada GoldBolt won't be the only track star to keep an eye on Sunday, though, as 400-metre specialist Kirani James hopes to give Grenada their first medal of the 2016 RioOlympics.And just like Bolt, James also resembled a man who was barely even trying en route to the 400-metre semi-finals, qualifying far ahead of any opponents, as shown by FloTrack:Competition will be rife in this event, though, as sports writer Jeff Faraudo noted there were no major upsets during the first phase of qualification:James brought Grenada their first-ever Olympic gold medal with his 400-metre triumph at London 2012, and after going the first week of Rio 2016 without a podium place, he's out to replicate that feat on Sunday.However, it's far from a predetermined result considering South Africa'sWayde Van Niekerk andLaShawn Merritt of the United States took respective gold and silver ahead of him at last year's World Championships.
