On winning women's lead silver
On her performance:
“It was super fun to climb like that and the crowd was amazing. The route was also pretty nice to climb. It was a super long route, but it was fun.

“I think I had the wrong boulder in the end because I tried it fast, and it was better to go slow but I’m still happy about second place. It was a great performance.”

On what caused her fall:
“I think I read it a bit wrong in the observation because I thought the plan was to go a bit faster, but maybe slower was better. I was already quite pumped, so it was a good performance.”

On finished second behind Janja GARNBRET (SLO):
“She's an Olympic champion. I think everyone knows that the first place is already taken, so I don't try to chase her. I just tried to do my best and show that in my performance.”
On winning women's lead bronze
On her performance:
“I was very excited, and I felt in good shape, so all was good for me today. The route was not so tricky. Maybe more than the routes because it was my style. It was a very good climb.”

On what caused her fall:
“I think I put my feet too high. When you don't know the route, you can't take it very fast.”
On winning women's lead gold
On her performance:
“If we start with semis, I think my performance was great. I felt pumped, which I'm striving for every competition. I think the boulders were easier than the semis, but I still think hard enough that all the girls were separated nicely.

“I really enjoyed it. The crowd was amazing. I was more relaxed than in the semis because it was the final. I just had fun. I just climbed like I normally climb. I climbed very precisely, and I didn't make any mistakes. I just didn't think about anything, I just climbed.”

On adding a European gold to Olympic and world gold:
“It feels amazing to tick the remaining box. The European Championships is probably one of the hardest to win because you are expected to win it. If you can win World Cups, then people think that you should also win the European Championships. That's how it is.

“It was definitely one of the hardest mentally to win. That's why I'm even happier with my performance and my mentality throughout all competition.”
