The Women's 800m Final has Athing Mu as a -175 favorite to take home the gold. She is an American middle-distance runner who set the world under-20 record in the women's indoor 800 meters in early 2021 with a time of 1:58.40 sec, and the world under-20 best in the indoor 600 meters in 2019 when she was 16 years of age.

Rose Mary Almanza pays $525 for every $100 bet and Werkwuha Getachew pays $650.

Almanza Blanco is a Cuban middle-distance runner who competes in the 800 metres. She represented Cuba at the Pan American Games in 2011, 2015 and 2019 and won medals at the Ibero-American and Central American and Caribbean Championships in Athletics.

Werkwuha Getachew represents Ethiopia. She set a new national record. Her previous best had been 2:00.20 but she became the first woman in the world to break 1:57 in 2021 and, in doing so, secured her spot at the delayed 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
