Classic Physique Winner — Soomin Yoon
This is Soomin Yoon’s first win and Classic Physique Olympia qualification. He was a virtual unknown to many international fans, but he will be more known when he makes his Olympia debut in Las Vegas. He received a perfect score from the judges in this single-round competition. Seonghun Park was second in this contest, and Murat Can Karahasanlar finished in third place.
Men’s Physique Winner — Minsu Kim
This was Kim’s first competition of the 2024 season, and it ended with his first win in the pro ranks. If he chooses to enter the 2024 Men’s Physique Olympia, it will be his first time on that stage. Junpei Taguchi and Rahul Paswan joined Kim in the top three, in second and third place, respectively.
Bikini Division Winner — Ashley Kaltwasser
There was no doubt that Kaltwasser was the best athlete on the stage, according to the judges. She received unanimous first-place votes on the scorecards. The head judge was Sandy Williamson. Kaltwasser was already qualified for the Olympia before this show, meaning no qualification was awarded. Only show winners who had not previously qualified for the Olympia can earn qualifications. Second place went to Wenjun Duan of China, and third place went to Denmark’s Stine Hansen.
