The women's 4 × 100 metres relay event at the 1932 Summer Olympics took place on August 7.^[1]

As only six teams had entered, the teams requested that they run a straight final, which the officials accepted.

The Americans narrowly defeated the Canadians in a very close and exciting contest: both teams were credited with a new world record.
