Veddriq Leonardo Failed To Get A Medal Number Speed PON 2024

JAKARTA Rock climbing athlete Veddriq Leonardo failed to bring home a medal from the 2024 Aceh-North Sumatra National Sports Week (PON).

The athlete from West Kalimantan had to give up the opportunity to win a gold medal in the men's individual WR speed number after his steps stopped in the quarter-finals on Wednesday, September 11, 2024.

This result is very surprising because the 27-year-old athlete is a gold medalist at the 2024 Paris Olympics, the event which just ended in August 2024.

Veddriq was eliminated in the quarter-finals after losing to representatives of Central Java, Kiromal Katibin, when they dueled at the Rock Climbing Arena, the National Hope Stadium Complex, Banda Aceh.

This achievement adds to the grim record achieved by Veddriq in the 2024 PON. Previously, he had to settle for a bronze medal from the men's speed relay number on Sunday, September 8, 2024.

Veddriq won a gold medal in the men's speed number at the 2024 Paris Olympics after in the final round stopping his opponent from China, We Peng, with a difference of only 0.02 seconds.

At the 2024 Aceh-Sumut PON, rock climbing (sports) competed in a total of 16 numbers. Four of them are final, namely the men's and women's individual boulder and lead, as well as the men's and women's speed relay.

The rock climbing competition was attended by 26 provinces that sent a total of 188 athletes, consisting of 103 male athletes and 85 female athletes.
