Elisa Valentim Pecini
Pecini was the 2019 Bikini Olympia champion and is on the hunt for a second Olympia win. She doesn’t need to win this contest because Olympia champions are qualified in their division for life.
However, Pecini can use this show to help determine a strategy for the Olympia. Furthermore, a win will keep another competitor out of the Olympia lineup, as only pro show winners qualify in 2023.
Ariana Brothers
Ariana Brothers already has a win in 2023 at the 2023 Nashville Fit Show Pro. This show gives her an opportunity to stand next to a past Olympia champion, and if Brothers wins, no Olympia qualification will be issued to anyone else. Brothers competed in this show in 2020 and finished in 16th place. She will almost assuredly rank higher this time around.

Wu Bi
Wu Bi is a contender to score the win and must do so to qualify for the 2023 Bikini Olympia. Bi placed as high as second this season at the 2-23 Tahoe Pro. She ranked fifth at the 2023 Texas Pro. No athlete from China has yet qualified for the 2023 Bikini Olympia, so Bi could change if the judges favor her physique.
