Miller, trying to become the first American since Phil Mahre in 1983 to capture the overall World Cup title, clocked 1min 28.18sec to add the super-G to the downhill victory he claimed here Saturday.
Reigning overall World Cup champion Hermann Maier of Austria was second in 1:28.32, and fellow Austrian Michael Walchhofer was third in 1:28.73.

Maier, who returned from a career-threatening motorcycle accident to reclaim the overall title for a third time last season, had dominated the super-G at Lake Louise winning three times here.
On Sunday, his time at the first interval was faster than Miller's, but in the end he didn't have enough to displace the red-hot American.

The race was marred by crash by Canadian Vincent Lavoie, who suffered a suspected broken leg and was taken by helicopter to a hospital in Calgary.
