The final came down to a close finish between Dan Kinsey (USA) and Sid Atkinson (RSA). Atkinson had a slight lead at the 10th hurdle but clipped it with his foot, stumbled, and lost out on the run-in. Karl Anderson (USA) had been near the leaders coming to the ninth hurdle, but hit it hard and fell to the track, although he got up and finished the race. George Guthrie (USA) finished in third place but was disqualified for knocking over three hurdles, giving the bronze medal to Sweden’s Sten Pettersson.
