Sorato Anraku gets the last gold

Sorato Anraku, the dominant force in men's competition climbing since joining the senior circuit in 2023, has claimed his first World Championships gold. The 18-year-old had already secured three consecutive Boulder World Cup titles before this latest triumph. Winning in great style, he was #1 in all three rounds.

”knew that I had to finish the last boulder and I’m happy I could do it. I was able to really enjoy my climbing. I usually get stiff in that situation but I was so happy I could do well this time. I don’t know what I’ll do to celebrate. I think I do nothing.”
