2024 Women's Giant slalom World Cup
Previous: 2023 Next: 2025

The women's giant slalom in the 2024 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup is scheduled to include eleven events, including the final.[1] The season opened in Sölden, Austria on 28 October 2023.

Season summary

The opening race in Sölden was won by Switzerland's Lara Gut-Behrami, who finished in second place in the discipline last season (her best-ever season finish in the GS discipline).[2] Gut-Behrami followed up that victory by winning the second race in Killington as well.[3] However, both of the next two races in Tremblant, Canada (Quebec) were won by 2020 discipline champion Federica Brignone, who thus moved into second, narrowly behind Gut-Behrami, for the season, with defending discipline champion Mikaela Shiffrin in third for both races and for the season.[4]

Back in Europe after Christmas, Shiffrin won the giant slalom at Lienz for her 92nd career victory overall, with Brignone second and Gut-Behrami sixth, moving Brignone into the discipline lead by 35 points over her Swiss rival and 80 points over the American, with everyone else over 150 points behind.[5] However, the first post-Christmas race in Kranjska Gora, Slovenia took place in pouring rain and slushy conditions and was won in an upset by Valerie Grenier of Canada, with Gut-Behrami gaining twenty points on Brignone and closing to just 15 points behind.[6]

Finals

The World Cup finals in the discipline are scheduled to take place on Sunday, 17 March 2024 in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Austria. Only the top 25 skiers in the World Cup giant slalom discipline and the winner of the Junior World Championship, plus any skiers who have scored at least 500 points in the World Cup overall classification for the season, are eligible to compete in the final, and only the top 15 will earn World Cup points.
