Career

Dautherives competed in FIS races for the first time in December 1997, the first races in the European Cup followed in January 1999. In the 2006/07 European Cup season , she made it onto the podium three times in the slalom and reached fourth place in the slalom final. Dautherives made her World Cup debut in January 2003, but it was not until December 9, 2007 that she finished 25th in the Aspen slalom and won World Cup points for the first time. Three weeks later, at the slalom in Lienz on December 29, 2007, she surprisingly finished eighth and achieved her best ever World Cup result. On January 27, 2008 she reached her second top 15 result with 14th place in the slalom of Ofterschwang , but after that she was again without a result in several races.

From January 2009 Dautherives was able to regularly qualify for the second round and win World Cup points. There were no top placings until she achieved her second-best World Cup result on January 12, 2010 in the Flachau slalom with twelfth place. At the 2010 Winter Olympics , she was eliminated in the first slalom run. On December 21, 2010 she suffered a cruciate ligament rupture in the Courchevel World Cup Slalom , which is why she had to end the 2010/11 season early. In their comeback season 2011/12 Dautherives could only qualify in two World Cup slaloms for the second round, with their best result being 18th in Courchevel.
