On men's boulder qualification
On his performance:
“I was a little bit unsatisfied. I left the last boulder pretty early before my time ran out because I had no fun, but it should be enough to be in the top 10 of my group.”

On being the first athlete to compete:
“It really good to see the crowd cheering. It always helps to have a good crowd who is cheering for you. In the semifinals and the final, they could help make a big difference.”
On men's boulder qualification
On his performance:
“Mixed feelings I would say. I fell on two boulders which I felt I shouldn’t be falling from anymore, especially on the second one. I was on the movement and my hand slipped and that was a heartbreaker. It made the round far harder than it should have been, especially mentally, but I got a really good top on boulder number four, and it should still be enough (to reach the semifinals).”

On his aims for Munich 2022:
“My form is really good. I’ve been training for both boulder and lead to not have a specialisation on a discipline. I feel in the shape that I can do well in both disciplines.”
On men's boulder qualification
On his performance:
“The finish in the first three boulders was quite good. In the second part, on the next boulder it was such a physical challenge I thought it would be good for me, but I couldn’t reach the top.”

On the pressure of being Olympic champion:
“We are halfway through the season, and it isn’t that bad. In the first comp it was much worse, but now I can manage it quite well.”

On his condition:
“One month ago, I wasn’t feeling very competitive because I was injured (finger), so it will be super-nice to be in the semis and final.”

On competing in lead qualification on 11 August:
“It is going to be weird because I haven’t competed in lead since the Olympics, so it is going to be weird to see how fit I am for competing in it again.”
On men's boulder qualification
On his performance:
“I’m actually a bit surprised because I didn’t have the best round. I was struggling quite a bit because I got Covid last week and was breathing heavily. It turned out to be way better than I thought."

On how Covid affected his preparation:
“I didn’t train, I had two training sessions where I did a little bit to get my body back into shape. I had one last good session two days ago in Innsbruck which felt quite good, but I was already pretty sure I would not be in my best condition with breathing and endurance but it turned out well.”

On how close he came to withdrawing:
“It was pretty close. I got my negative test just a few days before the comp, so I was quite nervous the last couple of weeks, but it was hard.”

On his current condition:
“The only thing I’m not confident about is my endurance, which is more important in endurance, but my boulder shape is the best I’ve been this year.”
On men's boulder qualification
On his performance:
“I started pretty well and the first three blocks I got to the top pretty quick. Then the heat got to me, and it felt like the temperature shot up when I moved to the next two boulders, but I’m happy with I am and there’s two more rounds so I’ll save the good stuff till then.

On his condition:
“Best shape of my life. In training since coming back from the World Cups I’ve had a little rest and since then I’ve reached a new level.”
