The Australian women's eight stayed together into 2002 with just one seat change. Their European campaign ahead of the World Championships saw them take a bronze medal at the Rowing World Cup II in Lucerne and silver at the Rowing World Cup III in Munich. Winter raced in a double scull with Sattin in Lucerne and in a coxless four who placed third (with the other half of the eight winning) at Munich. At the 2002 World Championships in Seville Spain, the Australian eight won their heat but were beaten out by the USA by 0.45 seconds in the final. With Winter at bow the Australians just held out the Germans and she won her second World Championship placing – a silver. As in 2001, four members of the eight including Winter also doubled up in the coxless four to defend Australia's title. At Seville 2002 with Kristina Larsen in the bow, Victoria Roberts at stroke and Rebecca Sattin and Winter in the engine room, the Australian women won their heat and beat Canada in the final to claim another World Championship title – Winter's second.
