The women's 1500 metres at the 2024 Summer Olympics was held in four rounds at the Stade de France in Paris, France, between 6 and 10 August 2024. This was the fourteenth time the women's 1500 metres was contested at the Summer Olympics. A total of 45 athletes were able to participate after qualifying by entry standard or their World Athletics Ranking.

Summary

As the two time defending Olympic champion, two time reigning World Champion and world record holder, improving her own previous world record Just a month before the Olympics, Faith Kipyegon had all the check marks. The returning silver medalist is Laura Muir, who was also bronze medalist at the 2022 World Championships. Returning bronze medalist Sifan Hassan was on a different agenda, running the 10,000 metres just 40 minutes after the start of this race and the Marathon, starting less than 36 hours later. Hassan also took bronze in 2023 behind silver medalist Diribe Welteji, while the 2022 silver medalist was Gudaf Tsegay. Earlier in the season, Jessica Hull became the #5 performer in history, while chasing Kipyegon to her world record. Two and a half months earlier, Tsegay became #4 virtually unassisted, beating Birke Haylom by 3 seconds.[2][3] Haylom did not make the final.

Background

The women's 1500 metres has been a permanent fixture on the Olympic athletics programme since it was first held in 1972.
