Alban Levier has repeated Jan Hojer's Jour de Chasse, ~8C, at Recloses, Fontainebleau. This was the 8th ascent.

Although best known as a competition climber, Alban has previously repeated three and made the first ascent of one ~8C in Fontainebleau. 

Now he is off to compete in the French cup in Chamonix before heading to Bishop next week.

Depends a lot on how much the individual wants to play the news game. I'm sure a detailed write up photos and video will make something more newsworthy than an ascent which is shared with a few mates.
