The 44th
World Cup
season began on 24 October 2009, in
Solden
, Austria, and concluded on 14 March 2010, at the World Cup finals in
Garmisch
, Germany.
[1]
No World Cup events were scheduled in February because of the
2010 Winter Olympics
in
Vancouver
, Canada; the
Olympic alpine events
were scheduled for 13?27 February at
Whistler
Mountain.
The overall titles were won by
Carlo Janka
of Switzerland and
Lindsey Vonn
of the
U.S.
, her third consecutive.
The 2010 season also marked the end to a long and successful career for Liechtenstein skier
Marco Buchel
.
FIS standards require that three events be completed in a discipline for a discipline trophy to be awarded. During this season, there were only three combined races (all super-combined) scheduled for the women. Because the third race was cancelled on 5 March, FIS had to make a decision about whether an official trophy would be awarded for the discipline.
[2]
Ultimately, FIS decided to award the discipline trophy to the leader after two events,
Lindsey Vonn
, giving her four crystal globes for the year (overall, downhill, Super G and combined).
