This race consisted of one length of the pool in freestyle. The top eight swimmers from the heats would qualify for the A final (where the medals would be awarded), while the next best eight swimmers would qualify for the B final.[2]
Each National Olympic Committee (NOC) was able to enter up to two entrants providing they had met the A standard (26.05) in the qualifying period (January 1, 2014 to May 1, 2015). NOCs were also permitted to enter one athlete providing they had met the B standard (27.61) in the same qualifying period.[2] All other competing athletes were entered as universality spots.[2]
The A final was also held on July 17.[5] Vanderpool-Wallace was the first Bahamian swimmer to win a gold medal in the history of the Pan American games.
