It’s a contest six decades in the making — the 2024 Olympia, which runs from Oct. 10 to 13 in Las Vegas, NV, showcases the world’s biggest, baddest bodybuilders on a single star-studded stage.
Here are a few of the many events we’re excited about at the historic 60th “O”:
- Last year, Mr. Olympia winner Derek Lunsford made history when he became the Olympia’s first multi-division champ (Lunsford previously won the 212 division). Can he repeat and begin building the next bodybuilding dynasty?
- Chris Bumstead, the world’s most famous physique athlete, is poised to bag a sixth win in the illustrious Classic Physique category. Bumstead’s competition is stronger than ever, though, and “CBum” has hinted at retirement — is 2024 Bumstead’s swan song?
- The Ms. Olympia returned to the big stage in 2020. Andrea Shaw has ascended the throne every year since, but challenger Angela Yeo is rapidly closing the gap. Will we see a changing of the guard on the women’s side?
These are just some of the many thrilling storylines to resolve over the weekend in Sin City.

2024 IFBB Pro League Olympia Winners
Below is a list of every winner in each of the pro divisions. Keep scrolling to find out who placed in the top five, along with how much money they won.
Mr. Olympia Results
After a tight — and we’re talking tight — contest, Samson Dauda earned his first Mr. Olympia title, besting former champs Hadi Choopan and Derek Lunsford in the process. Dauda brought unreal size and conditioning to the stage, which was more than enough to sway the judges.
This is the third year in a row that the Mr. Olympia title has gone to a completely new champion. After so many decades full of dynasties, it seems like the Men’s Open division is more of a toss-up than ever. Then again, maybe we’re seeing the start of a new dynasty with Dauda.
- Samson Dauda — $600,000
- Hadi Choopan — $250,000
- Derek Lunsford
- Martin Fitzwater
- Chinedu Obiekea (Andrew Jacked)
212 Results
Keone Pearson impressed right out of the gate at pre-judging and kept the momentum going into the finals. This earned him his second consecutive 212 Olympia title, and it looks like a dynasty is in the making.

In order to clinch the win, Pearson had to go through Shaun Clarida, who previously won the 212 crown in 2020 and 2022. Clarida’s plan was to come in leaner and focus more on definition this year, but it was no match for Pearson.
- Keone Pearson — $50,000
- Shaun Clarida — $20,000
- Angel Calderon Frias — $12,000
- Kerrith Bajjo — $7,000
- Vitor De Oliveira — $6,000
Classic Physique Results
Tell us if you’ve heard this one before — Chris Bumstead is your Classic Physique Olympia champ. For the sixth consecutive time, “CBum” has walked away with the gold. That said, Mike Sommerfeld surprised the sport by not only taking second but also genuinely challenging Bumstead’s dominance. In the end, though, Bumstead couldn’t be denied.
After he secured his victory, Bumstead announced his retirement from competitive bodybuilding. He ended his bodybuilding career on top as a champion who defined a division and brought a new generation of fans to the sport. Of course, this opens the door for Sommerfeld, Urs Kalecinski, and the rest of this stacked roster in 2025.
- Chris Bumstead — $50,000
- Mike Sommerfeld — $20,000
- Urs Kalecinski — $12,000
- Ramon Rocha Queiroz — $7,000
- Breon Ansley — $6,000
Men’s Physique Results
Successful title defenses were a theme at the 2024 Olympia, and that continued Saturday night when Ryan Terry secured his second consecutive Men’s Physique win. This victory wasn’t easy, though, as Ali Bilal’s stellar performance could have easily earned him the nod.
Terry has appeared on the Olympia stage 10 times and is now the standard by which all other Men’s Physique athletes are judged. This contest may have been close, but don’t be surprised if Terry is in the same exact position in 2025.
- Ryan Terry — $50,000
- Ali Bilal — $20,000
- Erin Banks — $12,000
- Emmanuel Hunter — $7,000
- Edvan Palmeira — $6,000
Wheelchair Results
Harold Kelley reclaimed the Wheelchair Olympia title with a dominant performance in Sin City. This marks the sixth time Kelley has won it all, having previously scored victories every year from 2018 to 2022.
Though his dynasty was briefly interrupted when Karol Milewski won in 2023, Kelley came into the O this year on a mission, proving again why he’s the standard in the Wheelchair division.
- Harold Kelley
- Kevin Secundino
- Karol Milewski
- Gabriele Andriulli
- Josue Fabiano Barretto Monteiro
Ms. Olympia Results
The Ms. Olympia was one of the most anticipated showdowns of the weekend: Would Andrea Shaw retain her Ms. Olympia title for the fifth consecutive year? Or would Angela Yeo beat Shaw again, just as she had at the 2024 Rising Phoenix contest just six weeks prior?
As usual, Shaw answered the call and pulled off the win. That said, this was arguably the closest Ms. Olympia contest in recent memory, and could be a taste of a burgeoning rivalry between Shaw and Yeo.
- Andrea Shaw — $50,000
- Angela Yeo — $20,000
- Ashley Lynette Jones — $12,000
- Helle Trevino — $7,000
- Nadia Capotosto — $6,000
Women’s Physique Results
Sarah Villegas etched her name in the history books by becoming a four-time Women’s Physique Olympia winner in 2024. Villegas beat out Natalia Abraham Coelho in a tight battle, further solidifying her standing at the top of what has become a highly competitive division.

- Sarah Villegas — $50,000
- Natalia Abraham Coelho — $20,000
- Sheronica Henton — $12,000

Fitness Results
Nearly one year after suffering a knee injury during her Olympia performance, Missy Truscott returned to the stage and clinched a hard-fought victory to reclaim her spot at the top of the Fitness division.
This is Truscott’s third Olympia win. Her performance was highlighted by a routine in Spartan garb, complete with a sparkling knee brace.
- Missy Truscott — $50,000
- Jaclyn Baker — $20,000
- Taylor Learmont — $12,000
- Allison Kramer — $7,000
- Tamara Vahn — $6,000
Figure Results
Cydney Gillon made history yet again in 2024 when she secured her eighth Figure Olympia championship, tying Gillon with Ronnie Coleman and Lee Haney in cumulative wins at the Olympia. She still trails Iris Kyle, who won an extraordinary 10 Ms. Olympia titles throughout the 2000s and 2010s.

As she accepted her medal on stage after the competition, Gillon shocked the crowd by announcing that this would be her final Olympia appearance, ending her dynasty and ushering in the next chapter in the Figure division. Here are the top five from the contest:

- Jessica Reyes Padilla — $20,000
- Lola Montez — $12,000
- Natalia Soltero — $7,000
- Rhea Gayle — $6,000
Bikini Results
The seven-year journey is over — Lauralie Chapados has finally won the Bikini Olympia. This was a hard-fought contest, as Ashley Kaltwasser was locked in and looking to claim the title. It wasn’t enough, though, and Chapados made up for years of top-five finishes by finally reaching her ultimate goal.
- Lauralie Chapados — $50,000
- Ashley Kaltwasser— $20,000
- Jasmine Gonzalez — $12,000
- Aimee Leann Delgado — $7,000

Wellness Results
In the first true shocker of the 2024 Olympia, Isabelle Nunes beat Francielle Mattos for the Wellness Olympia crown. Mattos has won this competition every year since the division began back in 2021. Now, though, Nunes has put her name in the record book and kickstarted a new era for Wellness. Is this just a blip, or can Nunes forge her own dynasty?
- Isabelle Nunes — $50,000
- Francielle Mattos — $20,000
- Eduarda Bazerra — $12,000
- Elisa Alcantara — $7,000
- Giselle Machado — $6,000
