Nick Ehman just did the Nose solo in 4:39, taking over an hour off a record that Honnold has held for more than a decade. For anyone that cares there’s a good write up of some of the techniques he used on the El Cap Report.

It's very impressive but I'm assuming this is just one variant of the speed record (i.e. solo) rather than THE nose record (climbing as a pair) which is more like 2 hours. So perhaps not such big news for that reason.
