Athletes to Watch
Nothing is guaranteed in a bodybuilding show, but these three athletes will likely be in the mix for the win.
Hannah Prause
This will be Hannah Prause’s first appearance of the calendar year. Her last show was the 2023 Fashion Street Fitparade Pro, where she finished in fourth place. She has been in the pro ranks since 2019 and has been in the top five of several shows but has yet to break through to the top.
Nelly Gonzalez
Nelly Gonzalez was 13th at the 2024 Chicago Pro, but she rebounded and finished fourth at the 2024 Texas Pro later in the season. She is still looking for her first pro win and Olympia qualification.
Michele Gasser
Michelle Gasser will make her IFBB Pro League debut at this event. She earned her pro status at the 2023 NPC Worldwide European Masters Championships. Her wide shoulders and narrow waist make her a perfect fit for the division, and it will not be a surprise if she is in multiple callouts.
Other Notes
Two other Figure division contests are being held on the same weekend. The Daytona Pro, set to take place in Daytona Beach, FL, the AGP Pro All Stars show in Gyeonggi State, South Korea, and the Legion Sports Fest Pro in Reno, NV, are also 2025 Olympia qualifying shows.
