We are aware of an incident involving the distribution of our international signal that resulted in images of the routesetting for the women’s Boulder final being made available for a limited period of time on a Chinese streaming platform. Immediate action was taken to resolve the matter, and any boulders shown in the footage have since been changed and modified by the routesetting team to ensure the integrity of the competition.
