Unstoppable Janja Garnbret nails 3rd World Cup win in a week as USA's Sean Bailey comes up big too

It's all in week's work for Janja Garnbret who claimed three World Cup titles in seven days after this latest lead win at the IFSC Sport Climbing World Cup in Villars, Switzerland.

And it was a good day at the vertical office too for the USA's Sean Bailey as he bagged his first ever World Cup lead title.

For Garnbret, a lead/boulder double at Austria's Innsbruck last week was a thrill, then she somehow topped Laura Rogora's superb climb on the final lead wall today Saturday 3rd July to win her 30th WC title.

Rogora made the first top of the day on a seriously tricky lead course, leaping to the final hold that had escaped all the other climbers, clipping in with just Garnbret left to go.

It looked an impossible task for Janja who was last on the wall after she finished first in qualifying, but a stunning climb took her to the top seconds faster than Rogora and she recorded yet another win.

The Slovenian Olympic hope once again underlined her class just days away from the Tokyo Olympics where sport climbing will make its debut.

U.S. climber Natalia Grossman was first on the wall and made it practically all the way - just one move from the top, wearing her trademark smile the entire time with the Swiss crowd roaring her on.

A 42+ score left Grossman in third place.

"It was amazing," the winner Garnbret said live on Olympic Channel afterwards.

"I knew that Laura solved the route before me so this was a lot of pressure on me. But, ya, I guess I work well under pressure [Laughs].. I'm just so happy I could put my climbing together... and I'm really happy with my performances this week."

Asked how she deals with the pressure of being the favourite week-in, week-out, Garnbret said:

"I'm pretty hard on myself so I don't care about the pressure from others, so usually I just try to have fun and do what I do best and that's pretty much it!"

Sean Bailey won his first ever lead World Cup title after he climbed highest on the final wall in Villars.

The 25-year-old American reached highest on a tough final wall in humid conditions scoring 38 to finish first.

Bailey, who won his first World Cup title in boulder in Salt Lake City, Utah, left German climber Alex Megos in second on 35+.

And another U.S. climber rounded off the podium, Colin Duffy finished third after a solid climb gave him 31+.

Spanish 18-year-old climbing sensation Alberto Gines Lopez led from qualifying coming into the final but an early slip left him in fifth place.

The shocks started in the men’s semi-final when top-seed Stefano Ghisolfi from Italy failed to break into the top-8 leaving him outside the final cut-off. An early fail left him with 35+ and in 11th place.

Speedstar: 2-in-a-row for Indonesia's Veddriq Leonardo

On Friday it was a second consecutive speed World Cup title for Indonesian world record holder Veddriq Leonardo who flashed up the wall in 5.329 seconds, ahead of Rus Dmitrii Timofeev from Russia, who had a costly slip early in the final race.

Timofeev's teammate Kiromal Katibin was third despite topping the qualifying round.

In the women's event Russian climbers were dominant with Ekaterina Barashchuk (7.306s) claiming first place from Iuliia Kaplina (8.397).

It was an emotional win for Baraschuk who was in tears as she came back down to earth on the rope.

Barashchuk and Kaplina had another compatriot in the final but it was Poland’s Patrycja Chudziak who stepped up onto the podium in third place.
