Janja Garnbret, who missed the first three Boulder World Cups in 2023 due to a broken toe, was the only female to top all five qualification boulders in Prague. Garnbret commented to IFSC: ”I didn’t feel like I just came back from an eight-month break. I couldn’t stop smiling all the time, because I felt very comfortable on the mats, I felt myself. It was incredible!”

The other group was won by Futabo Ito. Noteworthy is that five of the Top-7 ranked after three events did not participate; Brooke Raboutou, Natalia Grossman, Anon Matsufuji, Hannah Meul and Anastasia Sanders. Complete results
