The Women's Downhill competition of the Sarajevo 1984 Olympics was held at Jahorina on Thursday, February 16.[1] It was the tenth edition of the event, which was established in 1948.[2]

The defending world champion was Gerry Sorensen of Canada, while Switzerland's Doris De Agostini was the defending World Cup downhill champion and Switzerland's Maria Walliser led the current season.[3][4] Defending Olympic champion Annemarie Moser-Pröll and De Agostini had both retired from competition.

The race was delayed five days, due to weather and scheduling conflicts.[5] Switzerland's Michela Figini won the gold medal, followed by teammate Walliser, and Olga Charvátová of Czechoslovakia was the bronze medalist.[6]

The course started at an elevation of 1,872 m (6,142 ft) above sea level with a vertical drop of 547 m (1,795 ft) and a length of 1.965 km (1.22 mi). Figini's winning time was 73.36 seconds, yielding an average speed of 96.429 km/h (59.9 mph), with an average vertical descent rate of 7.456 m/s (24.5 ft/s).

The men's downhill, delayed a full week, was run the same day at Bjelašnica,[7] and started at noon.
