Shikolenko (67.36) and Hattestad (67.20), the athletes considered likely to vie for the gold medal, led the qualifiers. After Sanderson opened with 63.58 in her fifth Olympics, Shikolenko took the lead with 68.26, and was followed immediately by Renk (67.24) and Forkel (65.02). The medallists were decided, as only Hattestad of the other medal contenders produced a 63+ throw, and her 63.54 was not enough to take her beyond fifth place. Forkel achieved her best throw in the fifth round with 66.86, and supported it well with her final effort of 66.80. Renk was throwing just before her and, with the penultimate effort of the competition, hurled the winning throw of 68.34, to gain the narrowest Olympic javelin win since her male compatriot Wolfermann beat Lūsis in 1972.
