The women's double sculls event at the 2024 Summer Olympics took place from 27 July to 1 August 2024 at the Stade nautique de Vaires-sur-Marne, National Olympic Nautical Stadium of Île-de-France, Vaires-sur-Marne.
Background
[edit]This is the 13th appearance of the event, which was introduced at the 1976 Games.
Qualification
[edit]Each National Olympic Committee (NOC) was limited to a single boat (one rower) in the event since 1912.
Competition format
[edit]This rowing event is a double scull event, meaning that each boat is propelled by two rowers. The "scull" portion means that the rower uses two oars, one on each side of the boat; this contrasts with sweep rowing in which each rower has one oar and rows on only one side. The competition consists of multiple rounds. The competition continues to use the three-round format. Finals are held to determine the placing of each boat. The course uses the 2000 metres distance that became the Olympic standard in 1912.[1]
During the first round three heats were held. The first three boats in each heat advanced to the semifinals, with the others relegated to the repechages.
The repechage is a round which offered rowers a second chance to qualify for the semifinals. Placing in the repechage determined which semifinal the boat would race in. The top three boats in the repechage move on to the semifinals, with the remaining boats being eliminated.
Two semifinals were held, each with 6 boats. The top three boats from each heat advanced to Final A and compete for a medal. The remaining boats advanced to Final B.
The third and final round was the finals. Each final determines a set of rankings. The A final determined the medals, along with the rest of the places through 6th, while the B final gives rankings from 7th to 12th.
Schedule
[edit]The competition is being held over six days.[2]
All times are Central European Summer Time (UTC+2)
