The Men's Boulder & Lead competition is part of the Combined event in Olympic sport climbing, which includes three disciplines: Speed, Boulder, and Lead. The semifinal focuses on the Boulder and Lead disciplines.
Boulder:
Climbers attempt to solve a series of fixed routes (called problems) on a low-height wall without ropes within a specified time.
Points are awarded based on the number of problems completed and the number of attempts taken.
Each problem has a "zone" hold partway up, providing additional points if reached.
Lead:
Climbers attempt to climb as high as possible on a high wall with a time limit, using ropes for safety.
The height reached (measured in holds) determines the score, with ties broken by time.
