Classic Physique Winner — Andres Eduardo Taveras
Taveras turned pro in 2022 but waited two years to debut. The extra time paid off because he is one-for-one in the pro ranks. He won this show and Classic Physique Olympia qualification with a perfect score on the scorecards over runner-up Jean Guerrero and third-place finisher Anthony Barbera III.
Men’s Physique Winner — Guilherme Gualberto
Gualbarto was coming off a second-place finish to Sidy Pouye at the 2024 Mr. Big Evolution Pro. Gualbarto secured his first win and Olympia qualification in Colombia. Second place went to Juan Manuel Gochez, and bronze went to Steven Fiervil.
Figure Winner — Yamina Herrera
There have been multiple occasions where amateurs earned their pro cards and won their pro debut on the same weekend this season. The latest is Yamina Herrera, who turned pro in the pro qualifier the day before this show and won her first pro show in an upset win over runner-up Danielle Rose. Herrera is set to enter the 2024 Figure Olympia.
Bikini Winner — Ivi Escandar
Escandar already qualified for the 2024 Olympia thanks to her win at the 2024 Mr. Big Evolution Pro. Her win in Colombia kept another rival from qualifying.
Mariana Menezes and Rania Stamatiadou took second and third place, respectively. They and the rest of the lineup for this show have until Sept. 15, 2024, to win a pro show to qualify for the Olympia.
Wellness Winner — Eduarda Bezerra
Bezerra was the third athlete to win her debut pro show. She turned pro in 2023 at that year’s Arnold South America Amateur event but held off on entering the pro ranks until now. The move paid off for.
