On the sixth day of the track and field events, the finals for the women's long jump, women's 200 meter, and women's 200m hurdle were scheduled.

The U.S. team had superior strength in the long jump, both men's and women's. There were two U.S. athletes in the final, Barrett, a veteran, and Seid, the record holder of women's long jump in the Indoor World Championships. They were both likely to win the gold medal.

Barrett was 31 years old, making her a real veteran. In the qualification matches in the US, Barret didn't win the qualify. However, due to the dosing scandal, the athletes ranking higher than her dropped out, which gave her a spot.

Seid was the champion in women's long jump in the last Olympics.
