Miller has won a total of four gold medals and one silver medal at the World Championships. In the 2004/2005 Season, Miller won his first overall FIS World Cup title, outlasting Austrian Benjamin Raich. In the 2006/07 Season, Miller finished 4th overall and won the Super G title. In May 2007, Miller announced that he was leaving the U.S. Ski Team to race as an independent.

    Qualche campionessa ha confidato che gareggiare a Cortina è come entrare in un tempio della velocità, che vincere sull’Olympia delle Tofane è una tesi di laurea per entrare nella storia dello sci. E noi siamo orgogliosi, cerchiamo ogni anno di crescere e migliorare per rendere le nostre gare sempre più attraenti e spettacolari per atleti, tecnici e spettatori. Anche in questa stagione siamo pronti ad ospitare la Coppa del Mondo, una discesa ed un superG, in attesa anche della prova di gigante che tornerà sulla pista ampezzana nel 2017. C’è anche la candidatura ad ospitare sulla nostra neve i Mondiali 2021 a stimolarci ancora di più, un’avventura che affrontiamo con la serenità della nostra esperienza, forti delle quasi 80 gare che abbiamo organizzato dal 1993, anno del rientro definitivo di Cortina nel circuito iridato. Dietro alle quinte c’è sempre il lavoro oscuro di tecnici, amministratori, volontari, tutti portano il loro contributo perché le prove di Coppa siano una cartolina da inviare al mondo, per mostrare le nostre bellezze, la nostra ospitalità e le prerogative di una terra unica. Per questa possibilità ringraziamo la Federazione Internazionale, quella italiana nella persona del presidente Flavio Roda e tutti coloro che ci aiutano per la miglior riuscita dell’evento. Cortina aspetta tutti a braccia aperte. Enrico Valle Presidente Comitato Organizzatore There are champions of the Ladies' World Cup who have confided that racing in Cortina is like entering in the temple of speed, that winning on the “Olympia delle Tofane” is a master degree for being part of the skiing history.
