Janja Garnbret claims yet another gold medal
Janja Garnbret won her tenth World Championship gold in a very intense fight over Oriane Bertone, who flashed the first three and had her fingers on the top of the last.
Itโs incredible, honestly. I donโt know if I wished that this would happen, but today I just climbed with my heart. I felt kind of empty from yesterdayโs Lead semi and final, after winning the adrenaline goes a little down but I really just focused on myself and my climbing and luckily it worked out today. You kind of know what is going on, but not really. I knew already at the observation that the boulders were not that hard, maybe the last one was the hardest, but I knew there wasnโt a lot of room for mistakes. I knew what I had to do on the last boulder as I knew Oriane didnโt top. It definitely looked like my style and I knew I would top it, but it adds a bit of pressure.โ

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.
