2010 World Cup Champions

Carlo Janka

Lindsey Vonn

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 Büchel.

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).^[3]
