2022 Figure Olympia Pre-Judging Report

Cydney Gillon seeks a record sixth consecutive Olympia title.

Written by Roger Lockridge
Last updated on August 1st, 2023

The Venetian in Las Vegas, NV, hosted the pre-judging round of the 2022 Figure Olympia. Five-time champion Cydney Gillon planned to continue her reign and add a sixth championship to her mantle, while 38 other bodybuilders hoped to derail her dominance.

Like the 212 division, this is the largest lineup in the division’s history. After the contestants were compared in number order to the crowd and judges, prejudging began with 45-second introductions, followed by the callouts as requested by the judges.
