The 5000 Meters of women in the 2001 World Championships in Athletics was on 9 and 11 August 2001 at Commonwealth Stadium, the Canadian city of Edmonton held.

The Russian Olga Jegorowa became world champion . Just about a month before these world championships, Egorova had tested positive for erythropoietin (EPO). She was banned for two years, but was allowed to continue to participate in competitions because the test could not be legally evaluated for formal reasons. In 2008, Yegorova went to the doping investigators together with six other Russian athletes again and received a two-year ban that has now actually been implemented.
The Spaniard Marta Domínguez won the silver medal. She, too, was involved in a doping affair eight years later, although her result here in Edmonton was not affected. It was about their results achieved between August 5th, 2009 and January 4th, 2013, all of which were canceled.
As at the World Championships two years ago in Seville , Ethiopian Ayelech Worku came third.
