Classic Physique Winner — Laszlo Kiraly
Laszlo Kiraly of Hungary made his first appearance of the 2023 season in Milan. Prior to this season, Kiraly won the 2020 Arnold Classic UK and placed sixth in the 2022 edition of that contest.
Kiraly flew under the radar at the 2023 Sheru Classic Italy Pro but was the clear winner for the judges, who ranked him with all first-place votes. Kiraly’s victory qualifies him for the Olympia for the second time in his career. If he competes in November 2023, it will be his Olympia debut.
Men’s Physique Winner — Sidy Pouye
Dedicated Men’s Physique fans may have seen this result coming. Pouye ranked fourth in the 2023 Pittsburgh Pro and third in the 2023 New York Pro. While close to gold in those shows, it was only a matter of time before he stood atop the podium. This is Pouye’s third pro win, but he has yet to compete on the Olympia stage.

Bikini Division Winner — Zsofia Reka Molnar
Molnar was already qualified for the 2023 Olympia prior to entering the 2023 Sheru Classic Italy Pro, thanks to her win at the 2023 Tropicarium Budapest Pro. This was Molnar’s third pro win of the 2023 season, as she was also triumphant in the 2023 Fitness Authority Poland Pro.
Since Molnar was already Olympia-qualified, no qualification was awarded in this contest. Runner-up Anna Setla and third-place finisher Priscilla Leimbacher will have to compete in a future pro show and win to join Molnar on the grand stage in Orlando, FL, in November.
