Young Alice McKennis is looking fast in Lake Louise, finishing fourth in Tuesday's World Cup downhill training, well within a second of leader Maria Holaus of Austria, who put down the fastest time down in 1 minute, 54.16 seconds.

Italy's Elena Fanchini was second down the course in 1:54.34, followed by Switzerland's Nadia Styger in 1:54.58. McKennis, who will be racing in her second ever World Cup this Friday (her first was last year's downhill in Lake Louise), came in at 1:54.74, with teammate Julia Mancuso very close behind to wrap up the top five in 1:54.60.

Lindsey Vonn was eighth in Tuesday's training with a time of 1:55.10, with teammates Stacey Cook (1:55.33) and Chelsea Marshall (1:55.41) on her heels in ninth and 10th, respectively.

Emily Brydon was fastest of the home country contingent, finishing 12th in 1:55.58.

Women's World Cup racing begins Friday in Lake Louise with downhill, followed by another DH Saturday and wrapping up with super G on Sunday.
