Summary

Under hot conditions Fátima Diame took the early lead with 6.82m. Several jumps later Ese Brume came close with a 6.80m. At the end of the round, Tara Davis-Woodhall popped a 6.91m. Only 5 of the first round were able to get a legal jump off. Next down the runway, Ivana Vuleta jumped 7.05m for her first legal jump to move on top of the podium. Later in the round, Brume improved her position by making 6.84m. From there, nobody was able to improve until the last jump of the fifth round, when Vuleta nailed a big one. Thinking she had fouled, Vuleta walked to the stands in frustration, but the jump was called good and measured at 7.14 m (23 ft 5 in). With her final attempt Alina Rotaru-Kottmann jumped 6.88m to leapfrog into bronze.
