The lead lasted barely 2 minutes before newcomer Yulimar Rojas popped 14.41.

Kristin Gierisch edged into second place with a fourth round 14.16, then confirmed her silver medal with a 14.30 in the fifth round. As the Olympics go to South America for the first time, Rojas joins Caterine Ibargüen as South American athletes at the top of world championships in this event.
