Winner — Shanique Grant
Grant is a former two-time Women’s Physique Olympia champion. With permission from the promoters, she has a lifetime invite to compete in that division at the Olympia. Still, she needed to qualify for the Wellness Olympia because it is her new category.
This was Grant’s second Wellness pro show, and she secured her spot on the Olympia stage. She could become the second athlete to win the Olympia in two divisions. The first was Derek Lunsford.
Second Place — Lilian Nava
Nava placed one spot higher than her third-place finish at the 2025 Legion Sports Fest Pro one week before this contest. She is in her third pro season, trying to earn her first pro win and Olympia qualification.
Third Place — Narla Vilar
Vilar competed in the 2024 Wellness Olympia, finishing tied for 16th. This was her 2025 season debut. If she wants to return to the Olympia stage, she must win a competition by Sept. 14, 2025.
Other Notes
This was one of two pro Wellness shows held this weekend. The other was at the 2025 Toronto Pro Supershow.
