Jessica Pliz de l'Autriche participe à la tête de la femme pendant le match final de la saison 2018 Fédération Internationale du Sport de l'Escalade (IFSC) à la Coupe du Monde
Jessica Pliz of Austria competes in the women's lead season final match during the 2018 International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC) World Cup tournament in Xiaman city, southeast China's Fujian province, 28 October 2018. Slovenia's Janja Garnbret and Austria's Jakob Schubert sealed the overall titles at the final International Federation of Sport Climbing (IFSC) World Cup of the season in Xiamen, as Bassa Mawem was crowned men's speed champion. Both Garnbret and Schubert led the overall standings heading into the season finale in China. The IFSC overall titles are determined by a new calculation this season, with athletes competing in two or more bouldering, lead and speed events given ranking points based on their relative ranking against one another at eligible events. The duo, who had secured series titles in the lead discipline, would preserve their advantage to be crowned overall winners. Garnbret achieved the feat for the third straight season, despite ending as the runner-up in today's women's lead final. Austria¯s Jessica Pilz, who was Garnbret's main rival in the discipline throughout the World Cup season, claimed her second World Cup win of the series. Jian Kim of South Korea came third.
