American Olympic champion Kaillie Humphries returned to form by winning her first monobob race in nearly three years, just weeks before the Milano Cortina Games. She finished with a time of 1:58.97, narrowly beating Australia’s Bree Walker. Meanwhile, Germany’s Laura Nolte secured the overall monobob title at the IBSF World Cup final, finishing third in the race but accumulating 1,446 points across seven races. Walker, finishing second overall for the third consecutive year, fell short by 17 points. Nolte's compatriot Lisa Buckwitz placed third overall, ahead of Humphries.
