The Game 8C by Ryuichi Murai
Ryuichi Murai reports on Insta that he had done The Game in Boulder Canyon which was his tenth 8C.
"Iโm so happy to send Danielโs masterpiece ! It took 2 days to send. First day, this boulder was bad condition due to rain and snow. I could do compression moves of upper part on the day, but bottom part (from start holds to 3rd hold) was so wet, and I couldnโt do.
Second day, this boulder was better condition and I managed to climb it in the evening. When I touched this boulder at the first time, I was certain that I can climb because Iโm good at roof climbing and compression moves. So I could do quick ascent though it's a hard problem." (c) Oda Momo

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
