Špotáková, the World Champion and favourite, had led the qualifiers with 67.69. Her competitive abilities were tested early in the final when Abakumova produced a Russian record of 69.32. Špotáková immedi- ately responded with an excellent 69.22. Obergföll and Sayers both produced their best throws in round one, and the bronze medal was set- tled in favour of the German. Abakumova backed up her opening throw with 69.04 in the second round, and in round 4 moved to number three on the all-time list with a European record of 70.78. No-one had ever thrown that far without winning, but Špotáková, who had begun her international career eight years earlier as a junior heptathlete, showed great poise and concentra- tion in producing her own national record of 71.42 in the final round to win the best throwing competition of the 2008 Olympics.
