Result
Kirsten Clark of the United States won the women's World Cup downhill at Lenzerheide, Switzerland, on 24 February 2001. Clark recorded 1:27.07, beating France's Regine Cavagnoud by 0.34 seconds. Germany's Petra Haltmayr finished third, 0.64 seconds behind.
Competition detail
Norway's Ingeborg Helen Marken missed the podium by two hundredths, finishing fourth at 0.66 behind Clark. Home skier Corinne Rey-Bellet was fifth at 0.75, followed by Isolde Kostner at 0.79. Picabo Street and Megan Gerety finished seventh and eighth, giving the United States three skiers in the first eight places.
The FIS classification separates the completed downhill from the super-G held at the same meeting the following day. Clark's winning time belongs specifically to the downhill; it is not a combined score, a training result or a title awarded for the entire weekend. The independent event record corroborates the date and podium.
Context and dates
The official race identifier is AL 12983, and FIS's Lenzerheide programme places the women's downhill on 24 February. Retaining that event-level identity prevents the adjacent super-G from being counted as the same development, while keeping each complete race as a single report. The historical date is distinct from this archive addition's publication timestamp.
