Doping
Anna Alminova won the event and was awarded the gold medal, but was years later disqualified after IAAF in 2014 handed her a doping ban caused by abnormaleties in her biological passport profile.[1] All her results from 16 February 2009 onwards were annulled.[2]
Natalia Rodríguez (gold), Sonja Roman (silver) and Roísín McGettigan (bronze) received their medals by mail.
