Highlights from the Olympia 2021 Figure prejudging.
The 2021 Olympia began on Friday morning and Figure was one of the first divisions on stage. Some of the top competitors in the world took the stage in Orlando to show off the progress they have made. In Figure, there has been consistency at the top and athletes are looking to knock off the champion.
Cydney Gillon entered this year’s competition having won the last four Olympia Figure titles. She came in looking her best with a chance to make it five in a row. She headlined a first callout that featured six competitors. Jessica Reyes Padilla and Stephanie Gibson came in as serious contenders to dethrone Gillon. They were joined by Nicole Zenobia Graham, Larhannah Robinson, and Natalia Soltero.
The judges moved around the competitors quite a bit to get a good view. Gillon spent most time in the center but there was no consistent placing for any of the athletes. The judges seemed keen on getting different angles of all competitors.
After four rounds of callouts, the judges brought back four competitors that can be viewed as the top four. Gillon returned to centerstage, along with Graham, Padilla, and Gibson. This solidified the notion that there are clear contenders to take down Gillon.
After watching the prejudging round, this will be no easy task. Below, you can find a full breakdown of the Olympia 2021 Figure prejudging that took place on Friday morning.
