Commentary

There are few specific poses for this division, but the judges can see what they want from the front and back. The fans were clearly in favor of seven-time defending champion Cydney Gillon, but each competitor had a fan section that cheered as they came onstage.

As many expected, Gillon and 2023 runner-up Jessica Reyes Padilla were in the middle of the first callout, indicating they were the top two early on. Their inclusion in the final callout confirmed this. The title will likely go to one of them at the end of the finals.

One More Round to Go

The top 10 from this round advance to the finals, where the champion will be crowned. Stay tuned to BarBend for the latest updates on all 11 pro divisions at the 2024 Olympia. You can order the pay-per-view livestream on the Olympia Productions website to keep up with all the action live as it happens.
