Janja Garnbret is First Ever to Sweep Boulder Season
And Garnbret won her 25th World Cup with the victory in Vail
Janja Garnbret has become the first climber ever, men or women, to win all six Bouldering World Cups in one season. This is Garnbret’s 25th World Cup win. “My motivation was to win every cup, this was a lifetime goal,” said Garnbret after her win.
“This is a level of dominance we’ve never witnessed and we might never witness again,” said the IFSC commentator on the livestream shortly after her win. Full results here.
Garnbret didn’t have a strong semi-finals and said she was feeling some pressure going into finals. Fanny Gibert was climbing strong and was hoping for her first-ever World Cup win, but came up short with a bronze. Luce Douady, 15, was competing in her first world cup and made it through to finals.
