He redeemed himself in 2010 by winning his one and only gold in the super-combined event while also taking silver in the Super-G and bronze in the downhill. Miller won another bronze in the Super-G in Sochi and retired from the sport in 2017.

Outside the Olympics, Miller won four World Championship golds and 33 World Cup races, making him the most successful male American alpine skier of all time.
