Winner — Luca Reger

This is Reger’s first pro win and Olympia qualification, and they both come in his second pro show ever. He made his first pro appearance in 2023 at the Iogenix Spain Pro, where he placed sixth. Reger can wait to compete until the Olympia or attempt to win other pro shows, thereby blocking additional Olympia qualifications from being awarded.

Second Place — Alexander Westermeier

Many fans and experts felt Wastermeier was the favorite entering this event but settled for silver. He received all second-place votes from the judges in the prejudging round, the only round scored. This was Westermeier’s second pro show of 2024. He had previously placed third at the California Supplements Pro.

Third Place — Ferran Minana Ibanez

Ibanez finished third in his second pro show of his rookie campaign. This is the second straight time he finished one spot behind Westermeier. He ranked fourth at the California Supplements Pro event. Westermeier, Ibanez, and the rest of the lineup have until Sept. 15, 2024, to win a show to join Reger on the 2024 Olympia stage.
