The women's super-G in the 2026 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup is scheduled to consist of eight events, including the final.[1] The season is scheduled to begin at St. Moritz, Switzerland on 14 December 2025 and then to remain in Europe all season, with each race scheduled to occur the day after a downhill, according to the initial schedule released on 12 June 2025.[2] Thus, the Di Prampero course in Tarvisio, Italy will host its second-ever World Cup race on 18 January 2026.[3]
The season will be interrupted for the quadrennial 2026 Winter Olympics in three regions in Italy -- Milan, the Stelvio Pass, and Cortina d'Ampezzo—during 6–22 February 2026.[4] The Alpine speed skiing events for women are scheduled to take place on the classic Olimpia delle Tofane course at Cortina d'Ampezzo.[5] The championship in women's super-G is scheduled to be held on Thursday, 12 February.
Season summary
The super-G discipline was the final discipline to begin for the women in the 2026 season, not starting until the tenth race of the season (and third speed race at St. Moritz, Switzerland). By that point, five of the discipline's biggest stars were out, including defending champion Lara Gut-Behrami, Corinne Suter, and Michelle Gisin (all of Switzerland), Federica Brignone (Italy), and Lauren Macuga (U.S.). In the first race, New Zealand's Alice Robinson, the current giant slalom discipline leader, edged France's Romane Miradoli, Italy's Sofia Goggia, and the United States' Lindsey Vonn for her first-ever super-G victory; overall leader and 2019 discipline champion Mikaela Shiffrin competed in her first super-G in almost exactly two years but missed the last gate, costing her a top-10 finish.[6] The next week at Val d'Isère, France, Goggia, who had made a serious mistake in the previous day's downhill while leading, picked up her first victory of the season, with Robinson close behind in second (and retaining the discipline lead) and Vonn in third.[7]
Finals
The World Cup finals in the discipline are scheduled to take place on Sunday, 22 March 2026 on the Olympiabakken course at Kvitfjell, near Lillehammer, Norway.[8] Only the top 25 skiers in the World Cup super-G discipline and the winner of the 2026 FIS Junior World Championships in the discipline, plus any skiers who have scored at least 500 points in the World Cup overall classification for the season, will be eligible to compete in the final, and only the top 15 will earn World Cup points.
