After high-level performances in the initial callout round, competitors returned to the stage for a night of Finals to determine where the respective crowns belonged.

Fitness

When 2021 Fitness Olympia champion Whitney Jones unexpectedly withdrew from this year’s contest, the Fitness competitors saw the title up for grabs. When four-time Fitness Olympia champion Oksana Grishina withdrew due to injury, the field became that much more competitive.

During pre-judging, 2020 Fitness Olympia champion and 2021 runner-up Misty Truscott seemed to catch the judges’ eyes.

Final results will be posted as they become available.

212

The entire 212 division spent much of the year in a state of limbo, with 2021 champion Derek Lunsford choosing not to defend his title and instead transitioning up to the Men’s Open division. 2020 212 champion Shaun Clarida added to the uncertainty by publicly teasing a potential move to the Men’s Open division before deciding, weeks before this year’s Olympia, to remain in the 212 division and seek another title.

By the end of pre-judging, Clarida, 2019 champion Kamal Elgargni, and relative newcomer Angel Calderon Frias appeared to be top contenders for this year’s vacant title.

Final results will be posted as they become available.

Figure

As the only Figure Olympia champion to win a record-setting five titles, it was likely that Cydney Gillon would continue her dominating reign. However, the 2022 stage was packed with more competitors than any other year, meaning Gillon would face the largest group of contenders ever.

As pre-judging concluded, the callouts may have indicated Gillon was on track to continue her winning streak.

Final results will be posted as they become available.

Women’s Physique

The 2022 Women’s Physique Olympia was the 10th iteration of the contest. Sarah Villegas returned to the stage looking to add to her 2020 and 2021 crowns and become only the second woman to win the title at least three times.

Two-time runner-up Natalia Coelho and Villegas appeared to be battling for the title throughout pre-judging.

Final results will be posted as they become available.

Ms. Olympia

Two-time defending champion Andrea Shaw looked to make it a three-peat as she stepped on stage against 20 hungry competitors. 2020 runner-up Margie Martin had announced this to be her last contest after 11 years as a pro, which may have proved enough motivation to see her through.

Final results will be posted as they become available.

Wellness

As one of the newest divisions in the field, the Wellness Olympia finds its second-ever contest with a packed field. Inaugural champion Francielle Mattos looks to defend her title from a crowd of 37 challengers.

In addition, the Wellness division added a second competitive round, as a change from its single-round format in 2021.

Final results will be posted as they become available.
