Toronto Boulder World Cup

1. Alban Levier 3t6 4b5 - Anna Stöhr 3t6 4b5 2. Nathaniel Coleman(18) 3tp 4b8 - Akiyo Noguchi 3t7 4b7 3. Adam Ondra 2b3 3b3 - Jule Wurm 2t2 4b5 Complete results The big sensation was 18 year old Nathaniel, who was #20 in the qualification and #6 in the semifinal, finished 2nd in the final. He was very close to getting the top on the last problem, which means he would have won. Last year, he was #22 in Vail which is his only WC experience. The best result for Alban previously was being #8 in the world championship last year. Noteworthy is that this was the ninth time out of eleven events (82 %) that Stöhr won after starting first or second in the final. When she won or was second in the semi, starting last or second last in the final, she has only won 30 % of the events. For the male, during the last 20+ comps, only twice during the last 20 events, the winner of the semi, starting last out, did also win the final.
