Classic Physique Winner — Jaehun Park

Park won the 2023 Texas Pro to qualify for the 2023 Classic Physique Olympia in Orlando, FL. However, he did not compete in Orlando in the Olympia won by five-time champion Chris Bumstead. Park needed to win a pro show to qualify for the 2024 Olympia, and he did so in this contest. Florian Pearson of France came in second place, and rounding out the top three was Canada’s Adejoh Franklin Audu.

Men’s Physique Winner — Farouq Ishimoto

Ishimoto was the third-place finisher at the 2023 Japan Pro. He brought a better version of his physique to this contest, which resulted in his first professional victory. He is now eligible to make his Olympia debut should he choose to take the stage in Las Vegas in 2024. Bong Seok Choi was the favorite going into the show, but he finished with silver.

Bikini Division Winner — Uyanga Bataa

In May 2023, Uyanga Bataa was an amateur. In less than seven months, she earned her IFBB pro card, has competed in three shows, and is now a pro show champion. She won her first pro title and Olympia qualification over 21 other pros, many of whom had more experience than her. Kerry Sexton of the UK placed second, and third place was claimed by Ye Jin Kim.
