This data was collected using the official Olympic.org site, as well as a spreadsheet from the Guardian that includes data from 1896-2008 (), and data was compared with that from Encyclopaedia Britannica, and several news outlets were used to update the table when medals were reassigned (i.e. for doping offenses).

Medal count by country in the Women's Hammer Throw at the Summer Olympics 2000-2020
The Women's Hammer Throw was first introduced as an Olympic event in 2000, and hundred years after the men's event first took place. In these six tournaments, Polish athletes have been the most successful, winning four gold medals; three of which belong to the event's most successful athlete, Anita Włodarczyk. The original gold winners of the 2008 and 2012 events were subsequently stripped of their medals for doping violations; respectively, these were Aksana Miankova of Belarus, and Russia's Tatyana Lysenko (both of whom had also set new Olympic Records, which were later discarded).
