doping
There was a doping case here.
The US American Mike Stulce , who initially came third , had already been banned from doping for two years before winning his silver medal at the 1992 Olympic Games . Now he was tested positive again and had to give up his bronze medal.
Mainly three athletes were disadvantaged:
- Oleksandr Bahatsch from Ukraine , who only received his bronze medal as a successor and was unable to attend the award ceremony. However, he had already been caught as a doping sinner and was tested positive again five years later at the 1998 , whereupon he had to surrender the gold medal he had won there.
- The German Jonny Reinhardt would have allowed three more attempts in the final of the best eight in eighth place, which he took in the final result.
- The Ukrainian Oleksandr Klymenko could have taken part in the final with his qualifying distance , which brought him twelfth place after Bahatsch's disqualification.

32 participants competed in two groups for the qualifying round. The qualification distance for direct entry into the final was 20.00 m. Three athletes exceeded this mark (highlighted in light blue), including Mike Stulce, who was later disqualified for doping fraud. The final field was filled with the nine next placed athletes to twelve throwers (highlighted in light green). So finally 19.52 m had to be achieved to take part in the finals.
