The Women's floor competition at the 2016 Summer Olympics was held at the HSBC Arena on 16 August.
The medals were presented by Larry Probst IOC member, United States and Ali Zaater, FIG Executive Committee Member.
The top 8 qualifiers in the qualification phase (limit two per NOC), based on combined score of each apparatus, advanced to the individual all-around final. The finalists performed on each apparatus again. Qualification scores were then ignored, with only final round scores counting.
The gymnasts who rank in the top eight qualify for the final round, with a maximum of two gymnasts from any single NOC eligible to move to the finals. When more than two competitors from one country finish in the top eight, the gymnast(s) who are third or lower ranked from that country are replaced by the next best ranking gymnast.
