Heide Rosendahl (FRG) was the hot favourite, but withdrew after
injuring herself warming up. Antenen led after the first event with an
excellent 10.7, but Prokop took over the lead with her shot of 14.61 and
led at the end of day one with 3061, ahead of Tikhomirova (3000),
Mary Peters (2965) and Becker (2937). Becker’s 1.71 in the high jump
moved her to within 22 of the Austrian, and her 23.5 in the 200m
ensured a win by more than 100, with Toth moving from fifth to third
with her 23.8 in the 200m.
