2016 Alpine Skiing World Cup – Women's combined explained

The Women's Combined competition in the 2016 FIS Alpine Skiing World Cup involved three events, first a super-combined (downhill and one run of slalom), and then two Alpine combined (a Super-G and one run of slalom). Under the rules in effect at the time, three races in the discipline were required to award a crystal globe to the discipline champion (and, in a change, fewer than three races might still be sufficient, after no crystal globes were handed out in the discipline for the three previous seasons).

2016 overall champion Lara Gut-Behrami of Switzerland won the super-combined but then lost the season combined championship (and the crystal globe) to her Swiss teammate Wendy Holdener, who placed first and second in the two Alpine combineds.[1] However, Gut's third-place finish in the last race of the season, which was run in reverse order (slalom first, then Super-G), was sufficient for her to clinch the overall title for the season.[2] [3]

At this time, combined races were not included in the season finals, which were held in 2016 in St. Moritz, Switzerland.
