Maggie Ewen got off a 19.51m on her first attempt. There throws later, defending champion Chase Ealey launched a 20.35m to announce her intent to hold onto her title. Only four women in this field had ever thrown that far. A couple of throwers later Danniel Thomas-Dodd tossed a 19.38 to grab third place.

Four throwers later, Dongmo also threw a 19.69m. With the 19.63m, Dongmo held the tiebreaker and was in third place.
