# 2005 IAAF World Athletics Final – Results

These are the results of the 2005 IAAF World Athletics Final, which took place in at the Stade Louis II in Monte Carlo, Monaco on 9 to 10 September. The hammer throw events were staged separately on 3 September in Szombathely, Hungary, due to stadium limitations in Monaco.
The year's top seven athletes, based on their points ranking of the 2005 IAAF World Athletics Tour, qualified to compete in each event, with an extra four athletes selected for races of 1500 metres and above. One additional athlete, a wildcard, was allocated to each event by the IAAF and replacement athletes were admitted to replace the qualified athletes that could not attend the final.
