Croatia's Ivica Kostelic won the last super-combined race of the season in Sochi on Sunday to take the 2012 World Cup globe and defend his title in the discipline.
Slalom master Kostelic finished in 2 minutes, 50.21 seconds to beat Saturday's downhill victor Beat Fuez (2:51.37) by more than a seond. Kostelic made up 1.5 seconds overnight.
Thomas Mermillod Blondin of France was third in 2:51.98.
Kostelic, 32, injured his knee in Sunday's run, which marked his sixth World Cup super-combined win this season, and was whisked away to hospital for a scan before he could comment.
Several contenders came to grief on the icy Rosa Khutor slopes, including American Bode Miller, who retired after missing an early gate.
This weekend saw the 2014 Olympic resort host a World Cup stage for the first time, the sternest test yet of readiness to hold international competition.
Most competitors have lauded the course and the event's general organization. Sochi officials have expressed their wish to make the city a fixture on the World Cup calendar.
For Vancouver gold medalist Miller, who criticized the downhill course earlier this week for its twists and turns at the top, it was a second disappointment after being edged into fourth at the death Saturday by Canada's Benjamin Thomsen and Frenchman Adrien Theaux.
