2021 Tokyo Olympics: Women's Hammer Throw Gold Medal Odds Favor USA's DeAnna Price on FanDuel Sportsbook

The 2021 Olympic Games continue in Tokyo, and sports fans are watching the athletes in action and wagering on different events at FanDuel Sportsbook. The Summer Olympics are defined by track and field, and the women's hammer throw event will be one to watch starting Tuesday, Aug. 3.

Olympic Women's Hammer Throw

Anita Wlodarczyk is the only returning medalist from the 2016 Rio Games, and she's the two-time defending Olympic champion and four-time world champion in the hammer throw. Wlodarczyk is the greatest women's hammer thrower of all time, and holds the world record (82.98m). Her knee surgery two years ago has slowed her a bit, and now USA's DeAnna Price is the favorite (-200) having posted a 80.31m toss to win at the Olympic trials.

Also, fellow Team USA thrower Brook Anderson is a leading contender to medal and win gold, and she tossed her personal-best 78.18m in April.

Here are the FanDuel Sportsbook track and field betting odds and leading favorites and contenders to win the women's hammer throw. Twelve other competitors have odds of +10000.
