Jennifer Davidson is an American bobsledder who competed from the late 1990s to the early 2000s. She won two silver medals in the two-woman event at the FIBT World Championships, earning them in 2000 and 2001.
Davidson is best known for her controversy with her bobsleigh partner Jean Racine (now Prahm) prior to the bobsleigh trials for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City where the pair, who had been best friends since they were 13, split up when Racine dumped Davidson on December 13, 2001. Davidson filed suit against the US Bobsleigh and Skeleton Federation, but lost. She also demanded a run-off for a spot on the 2002 team, but also lost that.
