Winner — Joven Sagabain
This is Sagabain’s second straight victory at this event. He also was crowned champion in 2023. Based on the scorecards, he was the unanimous winner to the judges. Sagabain has three wins in his pro career and has qualified for the Olympia for the fourth straight year. He was tied for 16th in 2022, 2023, and most recently in Las Vegas, NV, at the 2024 Men’s Physique Olympia, which Ryan Terry won.
Second Place — Tyler Smith
Smith was unanimously chosen as the runner-up. This was the Masters competitor’s highest placing in an Open show this season. He has been in the pro ranks since 2021 but has yet to score an Open pro win or an Olympia qualification.
Third Place — Hieu Vu Minh
Minh is still in his rookie year at the pro level, but he was impressive enough to leave the stage with a top-three finish. This is his second straight podium finish, taking third at the 2024 Global Hong Kong Pro in September 2024. Minh turned pro at the 2023 NPC Worldwide Musclecontest Vietnam Pro Qualifier event.
