Youth Lead World Championships
97: Margo Hayes USA - Simon Lorenzi BEL
99: Janja Garnbret SLO - Giorgio Bendazzoli ITA
01: Ashima Shiraishi USA - Sam Avezou FRA
Complete results
1. Slovenia took all medals in female -99 and their fourth participant was #5. This must be the greatest domination by a country in the Youth Worlds. Among the male -99, Italy had three guys in the Top-8.
2. Ashima Shiraishi topped all four routes but also Janja Garnbret, Margo Hayes, Same Avezou and Giorgio Bendazzoli won all four rounds.
3. Simon Lorenzi was the biggest sensational winner - he was #21 after the two qualification routes.
4. USA and Japan with eight finalists were the two best countries. Surprisingly, bad results for Austria, Spain and Germany.
