Laura Nolte and Deborah Levi (Germany) won the two-woman bobsleigh comfortably, posting the best time in the first three runs, and winning by 0.77 seconds. Fellow Germans Mariama Jamanka and Alexandra Burghardt took the silver medal, finishing with the fastest run of the final round. Burghardt was making her Winter Olympic début, but not her Olympic début, as she had been a sprinter in athletics at Tokyo 2020.
Elana Meyers Taylor and Sylvia Hoffman (USA) came home for the bronze medal, placing third on all four runs. This was the first Olympic Winter Games for Nolte, although she did win a gold medal in monobob at the 2016 Youth Olympic Winter Games. Jamanka won her second consecutive medal in the event after winning gold at PyeongChang 2018 with Lisa Buckwitz. She immediately announced her retirement after the final run.
Meyers Taylor won her fourth medal in two-woman bobsleigh, which led the medal table in the event over Kaillie Humphries (Canada/USA), who finished seventh eventually. Meyers Taylor’s five bobsleigh medals were the most for any woman, ahead of Humphries with four.
After winning a silver medal in monobob, Meyers Taylor also became the first woman to win two bobsleigh medals at a single Olympics. She was 37 years, 132 days old at the time, making her the oldest female medallist in bobsleigh, surpassing Gerda Weissensteiner (Italy) who was 37 year 48 days in 2006.
