The women's coxless pair competition at the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, Australia took place at Sydney International Regatta Centre.

{{TOC limit|3}}

Competition format

This rowing event was a sweep event, meaning that each rower has one oar and rows on only one side. Two rowers crewed each boat, with no coxswain. The competition consists of multiple rounds. Finals were held to determine the placing of each boat; these finals were given letters with those nearer to the beginning of the alphabet meaning a better ranking. Semifinals were named based on which finals they fed, with each semifinal having two possible finals.

With 10 boats in heats, the best boats qualify directly for "Final A". All other boats progress to the repechage round, which offers a second chance to qualify for "Final A". Unsuccessful boats from the repechage must proceed to final B, which determines the last four places, from 7–10. The final ranking for this event was based on the order of finish. The top three teams earned Olympic medals for placing first, second, and third, while the remaining "Final A" teams placed fourth through sixth, according to their final finish.{{cite sports-reference|title = Rowing at the 2000 Sydney Summer Games: Women's Coxless Pairs|url = https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/2000/ROW/womens-coxless-pairs.html|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20200418025209/https://www.sports-reference.com/olympics/summer/2000/ROW/womens-coxless-pairs.html|url-status = dead|archive-date = 18 April 2020|access-date = 7 November 2012}}
