A complete breakdown of the 2022 Arnold Classic results for all divisions
The 2022 Arnold Classic returned to its normal time of the first week in March to begin the bodybuilding season. There was a full slate of events planned all throughout the weekend after the 2021 show was cut down due to the pandemic. There were a total of seven divisions in competition over the weekend event. Day one has come to a close with the Classic Physique division as the highlight of the night. Read on for the full results for all divisions so far.
The Men’s Open lineup was hit hard with many names dropping out over the course of the last five weeks. Entering the weekend, Curry was considered the favorite because of his incredible success in recent years. William Bonac made his return to the stage after missing last year’s competition while Steve Kuclo was looking to build off a third place finish in September.
Day one showcased the Men’s Open pre-judging seemingly placing either Brandon Curry or William Bonac into the lead position. But the battle was hard fought and it can still be anyone’s game. Justin Rodriguez and Steve Kuclo evened out the top 4. You can check out the full pre-judging callout report recap right here.
