Two Canadians, two Russians and two Americans as well as one starter each from Jamaica and the Ukraine qualified for the final.

The Canadian world champion Perdita Felicien was considered the favorite . But with Vice World Champion Brigitte Foster from Jamaica, the fourth place in the World Cup now starting for Spain and European Champion Glory Alozie - who was still a silver medalist for Nigeria at the 2000 Olympic Games - there was strong competition. The American Gail Devers, who was very successful in the past, was also there again. But of the favorites mentioned, only Felicien made it to the final. So she was all the more the main contender for the Olympic victory.

In the final race, only six of the eight hurdlers who started reached the finish. Right at the first hurdle, the Canadian world champion got out of step after a really good start and left her track. Due to her stumbling, she also brought down the Russian Irina Shevchenko, who was running next to her, so that both were eliminated. A protest by the Russian team and the request to repeat the race was not accepted.

The outcome of this competition was completely open. Up until halfway through the course, the athletes Joanna Hayes from the USA, the Ukrainian Olena Krassowska, the US athlete Melissa Morrison and Lacena Golding-Clarke from Jamaica were on the same level. But then Joanna Hayes prevailed as the clear Olympic champion and even set a new Olympic record with 12.37 seconds . In second place, eight hundredths of a second behind, Olena Krassowska crossed the finish line. Melissa Morrison won bronze for the second year in a row. The Russian Marija Korotejewa was fourth ahead of Lacena Golding-Clarke and the Canadian Angela Whyte. There were less than five tenths of a second between first and sixth place.

The Ukrainian Olena Krassowska was the first medalist in this discipline for her country.
