Winning the super-G at the US Alpine Championship in Alaska, Bode Miller tied for the men’s record with the ninth national title of his career.
A thorough professional, Miller for whom the national event is a mere child’s play described himself of being slightly better through the most difficult part of the relatively unchallenging course.
With the slalom Sunday and giant slalom Tuesday opportunities remain to go past the best as Miller joins Dick Durrance and Tiger Shaw for the most titles at the U.S. championships.
Julia Mancuso, the Olympic gold medalist in giant slalom and third overall in the World Cup this season was the best in the women’s event, bagging the her eighth super-G national title.
