The women's monobob competition in bobsleigh at the 2022 Winter Olympics was held on 13 February (heats 1 and 2) and 14 February (heats 3 and 4), at the Xiaohaituo Bobsleigh and Luge Track in Yanqing District of Beijing.{{cite web|url=https://new.inews.gtimg.com/tnews/f98bcfd4/9e07/f98bcfd4-9e07-4ca4-af18-80d0c86109c4.pdf|author=Minji Seo|date=2021-06-16|title=Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games Competition Schedule Version 9 |access-date=2021-12-24}} This was the inaugural monobob competition at the Olympics. Kaillie Humphries of the United States won the event. She was the 2018 two-woman bobsleigh champion, but at that time she represented Canada. Elana Meyers Taylor, also of the United States, won the silver medal, and Christine de Bruin of Canada bronze, her first Olympic medal.
In July 2018, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) officially added the women's monobob event to the program, increasing the total number of events to four.{{cite web|url=https://olympics.nbcsports.com/2018/07/18/beijing-2022-winter-olympics-new-sports/|title=Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics add seven new events|last=Zaccardi|first=Nick|date=18 July 2018|website=www.olympics.nbcsports.com/|publisher=NBC|access-date=6 September 2021}}
In the first day of competition, Humphries won both runs and developed an advantage over the second place, Christine de Bruin, with over a second. She won Run 3 as well, and was the third in the last run, which was sufficient for the gold medal. De Bruin dropped to third, and Meyers Taylor won the last run and guaranteed the silver medal.
Qualification
{{main|Bobsleigh at the 2022 Winter Olympics – Qualification}}
There was a quota of 20 sleds available for the women's mono-bob event. Qualification was based on the world rankings of the 2021/2022 season between 15 October 2020 and 16 January 2022. Pilots must have competed in six different races on three different tracks and been ranked in at least five of those races. Additionally, the pilot must been ranked among the top 50 for the man's events or top 40 for the women's events.{{cite web |url=https://www.ibsf.org/images/documents/downloads/OWG_-_YOG/Beijing_2022_-_Qualification_System_-_Bobsleigh_V1.6.pdf|title=Qualification Systems for XXIV Olympic Winter Games, Beijing 2022 |publisher=International Bobsleigh & Skeleton Federation|date=20 March 2020|accessdate=5 January 2022}}
For the women's races the IBSF combined ranking will be used for the quotas involving multiple sleds, and for the first six individual quotas in monobob. This meant the first 14 quotas were allocated to athletes already qualified in the two-woman event, with the six individual quotas awarded using the mono-bob ranking. The top four nations in the two-women event earned two quotas each. The next eight slots were awarded to the next eight best ranked NOC's in the two-woman event, while the last six were awarded in through the top six non-qualified athletes in the monobob ranking. The IBSF announced final quotas on 24 January 2022.{{cite web|url=https://www.ibsf.org/images/documents/downloads/Quotas/OWG_2022/IBSF_OWG_Beijing_2022_-_Bobsleigh_Quotas.pdf|title=XXIV Olympic Winter Games Beijing 2022 Bobsleigh - Participation|publisher=International Bobsleigh & Skeleton Federation (IBSF)|website=www.ibsf.org/|date=24 January 2022|accessdate=25 January 2022}}
