Shauna Coxsey, Jongwon Chon win Bouldering World Cup 2017, Stasa Gejo, Jan Hojer crowned European Champions
A bouldering competition that cannot be described in any other way as "intense" awarded several titles in Munich last weekend. Almost 300 athletes representing 47 different nations battled, and spent a record-breaking time in isolation, as they competed in the seventh and final stage of the Boulder World Cup, which also acted as the European Championship 2017.
The continental title was awarded during the semifinals and in the women's event a historic superfinal was needed - perhaps the first ever in a competition of this importance - to separate Slovenia’sJanja Garnbret and Serbia’s Stasa Gejo. In the end, the Serb stuck the dyno to take gold, while Garnbret settled for silver and Switzerland’s Petra Klingler too bronze. In the men's competition Jan Hojer was on firing form and defended his 2015 title convincingly with a display of unrivalled power and technique. Alexander Megos, who chose Munich as his return to world Cup competition climbing after 5 years absence, took silver, while Slovenia’s Anze Peharc took bronze.
The Munich stage was won by Garnbret and Hojer, ahead of Shauna Coxsey and Akiyo Noguchi, second, and Tomoa Narasaki and Taisei Ishimatsu, third. Fourth place was enough for Jongwon Chon from Korea to secure the overall 2017 Boulder World Cup, while Tomoa Narasaki settled for second place and Russia’s Aleksei Rubtsov slipped into third. Coxsey had mathematically won the World Cup even before this last stage, and Garnbret's victory enabled her to beat closest rival Noguchi in the overall standings to take silver.
