Men's final: Nathaniel Coleman stuns for silver
While Duffy impressed in qualification, his more experienced teammate Nathaniel Coleman came within a few holds of missing the final altogether. But Coleman snuck in with the eighth and final spot, then made it count medal round.
After a pedestrian sixth-place spot spot in the speed competition, Coleman put on a show in a difficult bouldering round, taking the No. 1 spot.
Third place on the lead was was enough to earn Coleman, and the United States, a historic silver medal in sport climbing's Olympic debut.
The Utah native, who has never made a combined final at any World Championships, was in disbelief after the competition, which was won by Spanish 18-year-old Alberto Gines Lopez.
