Harada and Nonaka win in Doha

Bouldering was one of the invited disciplines during the Doha Beach Games. In total 38 male and female participated out of which three from Japan getting two golds and one silver. Interestingly, a new format was tested where you had to reach the zone in two minutes in order to get the full four minutes for the Top. Among the male, this caused a little anti-climax as none of the six finalist got the zone on the final boulder. During the first three boulders, all but one reached the zone and among the female 21 out of the 24 zones were awarded. 1. Kai Harada JPN - Miho Nonaka JPN 2. Keita Watabe JPN - Petra Klingler SUI 3.
