Priscila Rodrigues
The 2023 Sheru Classic India Pro winner will compete in Brazil. Priscila Rodrigues has already qualified for the 2024 Bikini Olympia, thanks to her win in India in mid-November. Winning this show would block another competitor from the Olympia lineup. The 2024 Olympia qualification cutoff is Sept. 15, 2024.
Gessica Brun
Gessica Brun is set to compete in her fifth contest of the calendar year. Her last competition was the 2023 Bikini Olympia in Orlando, FL, where she finished outside the top 15. She has one win in 2023: the Sur Pro Cup Colombia show in Medellin, Colombia. That is the only win of her four-year pro career.
Amanda Marques
Marques finished outside the top 15 at the 2023 Bikini Olympia, won by Jennifer Dorie. Marques, Brun, and Rodrigues are the only three athletes in this lineup with Olympia experience.
2023 was Marques’ Olympia debut in just her second season as a pro. She has not competed since then. With a much smaller lineup in Brazil, there is little room for error in her final stages of preparation.
Other Notes
This is one of two pro Bikini division shows taking place on this particular weekend. Across the Pacific Ocean, the 2023 Japan Pro on Sunday, Nov. 26, 2023. The winner of that show will also qualify for the 2024 Olympia if the winner was not previously qualified.
