biography

Jacquemod, the daughter of an Englishwoman and an Italian from the Aosta Valley , grew up in Val-d'Isère , where her father was technical in charge of the World Cup races. She took part in FIS races from January 1995 and was able to win a total of 24 times at this level. In December 1995 she started in the European Cup for the first time . In December 1996 she celebrated her only European Cup victory in the giant slalom in St. Sebastian . On November 26, 1996, Jacquemod first took part in a World Cup race in Park City . She took her first World Cup points on January 18, 1997 with 21st place in the giant slalom in Zwiesel .

At the Junior World Championships in Schladming in 1997 , Jacquemod was runner-up in the giant slalom world champion . The following year she won the combined gold medal at the 1998 Junior World Championships in Chamonix , the silver medal again in the giant slalom and the bronze medal in the downhill. In her strongest discipline to date, giant slalom, Jacquemod struggled to assert herself in the World Cup, which is why she began to specialize in the fast downhill and super-G disciplines. She achieved her first top 10 placement on February 11, 2000 at the Super-G in Santa Caterina , which she was able to confirm in the 1999/2000 season with five further placements among the top ten.

The next two three seasons were less successful for Jacquemod until she achieved her first podium finish in March 2003 in the downhill from Kvitfjell . The best result in the 2003/04 season was a fourth place. She celebrated her only victory in the World Cup on January 7, 2005 in the descent from Santa Caterina. She achieved great success at the World Ski Championships in Bormio in 2005 , when she won the bronze medal in the newly created team competition together with Pierrick Bourgeat , Carole Montillet , Christel Pascal , Laure Pequegnot and Jean-Pierre Vidal .

A season of rather mediocre performance followed. In the 2006/07 season , Jacquemod was never on the podium, but with consistently good results she reached fifth place in the downhill discipline ranking, ninth place in the combined World Cup and tenth place in the overall World Cup. The 2007/08 season was pretty much the same : Once again, she did not achieve a podium, but finished seventh in the combined ranking, eighth in the downhill and ninth in the giant slalom. Preparations for the winter of 2008/09 were geared towards the World Championship taking place in her home town of Val-d'Isère , but the season was disappointing overall and at the World Championship she did not get past 15th place.

Jacquemod had her most successful World Cup season in the winter of 2009/10 when she came second twice and third once. She finished fourth in the downhill discipline, which was synonymous with her best performance of the season. In addition, she was sixth in the Super-G classification and ninth in the overall World Cup. In her third Olympic participation, in 2010 in Vancouver, she was tenth in the Super-G. In the 2010/11 World Cup season , two fifth places were added. On April 3, 2011, Jacquemod announced her resignation.
