The rowing competition in the women's lightweight double sculls as part of the rowing regatta of the 2016 Olympic Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro was held from August 7th to 12th, 2016 in the Rodrigo de Freitas lagoon . 40 athletes in 20 teams competed.

The competition, which was held over the Olympic rowing distance of 2000 meters, began with four preliminary runs with five teams each. The first and second-placed teams in the preliminary runs qualified directly for the semi-finals A / B, while the remaining twelve teams had to go to the two hope runs . Here again the first two teams qualified for the semifinals A / B and the last four boats for the semifinals C / B for places 13 to 20. In the two rounds of the semifinals A / B, the top three teams each qualified for the final, while the fourth to sixth placed in the B final rowed for 7th to 12th place. Likewise, in the two rounds of the semi-final C / D, the top three teams qualified for the C final for 13th to 18th place, while the fourth-placed teams rowed for 19th and 20th place in the D final. In the final on August 12, six teams competed for Olympic medals.

The rules of lightweight rowing applied to this competition . This meant that one or two hours before each race, the participants were weighed in the presence of a competition judge. Individual rowers were not allowed to weigh more than 59.0 kg, while the team average was not allowed to exceed 57.5 kg. A team in which both conditions for all rowers were not met at the same time would not have been allowed to continue participating in the competition.

The teams qualified for the next round are highlighted in light green.

In the final, the Dutch Ilse Paulis and Maaike Head won the gold medal. The pair had rowed in the C-final of the World Championships the year before, but then won the European title in 2016 and confidently used the last opportunity to qualify for the Olympic Games in May 2016. Silver went to Canadians Lindsay Jennerich and Patricia Obee ahead of Huang Wenyi and Pan Feihong from the People's Republic of China. The world champions from New Zealand Sophie MacKenzie and Julia Edward finished fourth and the British defending champion Katherine Copeland only reached the C-final with new partner Charlotte Taylor .

As the tenth-placed team at the 2015 World Rowing Championships , a Russian rowing team qualified for the women's lightweight double sculls competition. Inside were Alyona Schatagina and Anastasia Janina reported. In the course of the publication of the McLaren report in the Russian state doping affair on July 18, both rowers were excluded from the Olympic Games by the World Rowing Association, so that Russia could no longer take the starting place. Italy moved up based on the results of the qualifying regatta in Lucerne.

In the Polish team, the registered rower Joanna Dorociak had to be replaced by Martyna Mikołajczak a few days before the start of the regatta due to a thrombosis .
