execution
On the IAAF page about the hammer throw there is only a list of results with the final result for all eleven participants. A qualification is not listed there. Accordingly, all eleven competitors started together in a group for the final. It is not clear how many attempts were available to the athletes and whether after the third round, as was common at the Olympic Games at the time, for example, the best six throwers went into a final with three more rounds.
At the Olympic Games during this period, it was common practice in the jumping and throwing disciplines to first conduct a qualifying round on the morning of the competition day if the number of participants was not too small. This preliminary round was held in two groups. The final with the qualified athletes usually took place in the afternoon of the same day.
