Classic Physique Winner — Andy Paredes
Paredes began his second pro season with his first pro win and Olympia qualification. It was by far the best he looked onstage in his career.
Men’s Physique Winner — Dallas Botchway
Botchway, in his sophomore year at the pro level, won his first pro show gold. Mario Stewart looked to be a threat when they stood side by side onstage, but the judges unanimously gave Botchway the nod.
Figure Winner — Manuella Lima
Lima was coming off a ninth-place finish at the 2025 New York Pro. Adela Ondrejovicova was an early favorite, but Lima appeared leaner and had fuller muscles to pull the upset victory. This is her first pro win in her freshman pro season.
Bikini Winner — Yurika Noda
This was also Noda’s first victory and Olympia qualification. She earned a perfect score from the judges over runner-up Brianna Campardo and third-place finisher Kiki Cunningham. Noda will make her Olympia debut in 2025.
Women’s Physique Winner — Rachel Daniels
Daniels was the runner-up at the 2025 Pittsburgh Pro, suggesting it was only a matter of time before she won a pro show this season. She was the clear winner here, qualifying for the Women’s Physique Olympia for the third time in her career and first time since 2022.
Wellness Winner — Isamara Santos
Santos’ upper thigh definition pushed her over 10 opponents in the Wellness division. She aims to break into the top 15 of the Olympia in 2025.
