Chizhova had beaten Gummel’s 1968 world record on seven occasions in the four seasons leading into Munich and wanted revenge for her 1968 defeat. The first round settled scores, with Chizhova launching the shot out to a world record 21.03, almost a metre beyond Gummel’s best-ever effort of 20.11. The number two thrower of all-time strove mightily, and her 20.22 was a personal best, but it followed throws of 20.36 and 20.58 by Chizhova, who dominated the event. Khristova edged Dolzhenko by 11cm for third, with Adam and Lange rounding out the top six, as each of the top six produced the best mark ever for the order of finish.
