Austrians took second, third and fourth on the sunny late-morning competition on Ruthie's Run overlooking the city. Kirsten Clark of the United States finished fifth and teammate Lindsey Kildow was seventh.

Styger earned her second World Cup victory, winning in 1 minute, 13.77 seconds. Michaela Dorfmeister was second at 1:13.87, her fourth top-three finish in the last four races. Andrea Fischbacher was third in 1:14.07.

Alexandra Meissnitzer was fourth at 1:14.07. Meissnitzer won the season's first super-G Sunday, leading an Austrian sweep at Lake Louise. Fischbacher was second in that race and Dorfmeister third.
