Because of the Olympic boycott, US athlete Evelyn Ashford , leader of the world's annual best list, was unable to participate. The clear favorite was therefore the world record holder Marlies Göhr from the GDR. Other medal candidates were Sweden's Linda Haglund, Vice European Champion from 1978 , the sixth European Championship Lyudmila Kondratjewa, USSR, and Göhr's teammates Ingrid Auerswald and Romy Müller.
In the final, Goehr did not get off her starting block well. Kondratjewa started the fastest and was just ahead in the halfway point. Haglund followed behind, Auerswald was third. But Goehr caught up with every step and shortly before the goal it almost looked as if she could still catch Kondratieva. But Lyudmila Kondratjewa stayed ahead of the finish line with a lead of a hundredth of a second and surprisingly became Olympic champion ahead of Marlies Göhr. It was also very close behind these two. Ingrid Auerswald won the bronze medal with two hundredths of a second ahead of Linda Haglund and Romy Müller at the same time. Despite good conditions, Annegret Richter's Olympic record in Montreal was not quite achieved.
Lyudmila Kondratjewa was the first Soviet female Olympic champion over 100 meters .
