List of best IFSC results
This is a summary of the best results obtained in Climbing World Cups and Climbing World Championships organized by the International Climbing and Mountaineering Federation (from 1989 to 2006) and the International Federation of Sport Climbing (since 2007). Athletes are ranked based on the total number of victories obtained throughout their career across all disciplines (Lead climbing, Bouldering, Speed climbing, Combined disciplines), regardless of the number of seasons needed to obtain them.
World rankings with a different definition and purpose are provided elsewhere by the IFSC. They are known as the IFSC World Rankings and are computed separately for each of the main disciplines (Lead, Bouldering, Speed), and are based on the sum of all results obtained by each athlete in the last twelve months.[1][2]
While this summary is meant to be used as a tool to identify the most successful athletes in the history of competition climbing, the IFSC World Rankings are meant to identify the strongest among those who are still competing.
Number of victories in Climbing World Cups and Championships
Athletes who at least won one World Cup series or World Championship are listed in the tables below. They are ranked based on the number of victories (T) they obtained throughout their career across all disciplines.
Separate scores are provided for each competition (1 = World Cups and 2 = World Championships) and discipline (L = Lead climbing, B = Bouldering, S = Speed climbing, and C = Combined disciplines). For instance, L1 is the number of Lead climbing World Cups awarded to each athlete. For each athlete, the total number of victories (T) is obtained by adding together the respective separate scores:
- T = L1 + B1 + S1 + C1 + L2 + B2 + S2 + C2
Partial totals are also provided for each discipline and competition. For instance, the total number of victories obtained in Lead climbing by each athlete is:
- L = L1 + L2
and the total number of World Cups awarded to each athlete is:
- T1 = L1 + B1 + S1 + C1
