2023 Tampa Pro Results and Scorecards — Day 1 (Live Updates )
The 2023 Tampa Pro is taking place from August 3-5 in Tampa, Florida. This contest is a Mr. Olympia qualifier for ten divisions including Men’s Open, 212 Bodybuilding, Classic Physique, Men’s Physique, Women’s Bodybuilding, Women’s Physique, Figure, Fitness, Bikini, and Wellness.
Earning passage to this year’s Mr. Olympia contest has been more challenging as the point system has been removed. Therefore, any athlete who wishes to qualify must win a Pro show before October 9. This year’s 2023 Mr. Olympia competition will take place in Orlando, Florida, inside the Orange County Convention Center from November 2-5.
Last year, Men’s Open standout Akim Williams delivered gold at the 2022 Tampa Pro. It was a memorable night as Williams defeated surging contenders Quinton Eriya and Kamal Elgargni. However, Akim Williams chose not to defend his title this weekend, so a new Open champion will emerge. Whoever is victorious will have the opportunity to square off against the reigning Mr. Olympia Hadi Choopan in less than three months.

Jeremiah Maxey last competed at the 2022 Atlantic Coast Pro and put on a show. He took sixth but certainly came back with a vengeance. His main adversary, Arya Saffaie last appeared at the 2022 Olympia but was unable to place in the top 15. This time, Arya Saffaie dominated and earned his qualification to 2023 Olympia.

With a number of comparisons taking place, it was anyone’s title going into the finals.
Nicki Chartrand was in the running for gold. She took 2022 away from shows and one of her last appearances on stage was in eighth at the 2021 Rising Phoenix and Arizona Pro show.

Ivie Rhein’s last competition saw her take fifth at the 2022 Olympia contest. Meanwhile, Jeannie Feldman’s latest show was at the same Olympia event in sixth place. So both ladies were eager to run it back. Ultimately, the deep separation of Jennie Feldman’s physique prevailed and she walked away the winner.
Ivie Rhein finished runner-up and Robyn Mays took third.

2023 Chicago Pro Results (Live Updates)
The 2023 Chicago Pro, the biggest contest taking place this weekend, took over Chicago, Illinois from July 21-22. This show was an Olympia qualifier for this year’s blockbuster show and featured athletes from ten divisions: Men’s Open, 212 Bodybuilding, Classic Physique, Men’s Physique, Women’s Bodybuilding, Fitness, Figure, Bikini, Women’s Physique, and Wellness.
To secure their place in the Mr. Olympia competition, the most prestigious event of the year, competitors must qualify by Oct. 9. But this year, they have less time and fewer opportunities to acquire a qualification, making it harder than ever to reach the ultimate stage. Last year’s Chicago Pro champion, Antoine Vaillant, has opted not to compete this year. Therefore, a new champion will be crowned in the Open class.
We are actively updating the live results as they become available. Check out the results for Day One below:

2023 Vancouver Pro Results and Scorecards — Hassan Mostafa Wins Bodybuilding Title
The 2023 Vancouver Pro/Am is one of five events taking over the Pro bodybuilding world this weekend. On July 15 in Vancouver, Canada, competitors from the Classic Physique, Men’s Open, Men’s Physique, Bikini, Figure, and Fitness divisions battled for a shot at a Mr. Olympia invitation.
This year, athletes have fewer months and contests where they can qualify for the 2023 Mr. Olympia show. With that in mind, earning an invite has become even more challenging. This year’s Olympia event is slated for Nov. 2-5 in Orlando, Florida, inside the Orange County Convention Center.
Potentially, there will be six athletes who earn their way to the biggest competition on earth later this year. The respective winners of each division of this weekend’s show will have a shot at taking down the reigning champion of their division.
In the headlining Men’s Open category, Hassan Mostafa returned with a vengeance. He took runner-up twice thus far, first to Iain Valliere at the 2023 Toronto Pro Supershow, and then was upset by Phil Clahar at the 2023 Orlando Pro. Another top threat this weekend was Stan de Longeaux, well known as ‘Stanimal.’ He trailed Mostafa in Orlando, so he was hoping to one-up him here today.

Classic Physique: John Le

2023 Vancouver Pro/Am Results
Men’s Open
While it was a smaller lineup in Vancouver, athletes came out swinging during prejudging on Saturday. The thickness of Hassan Mostafa‘s back stood out as one of his best weapons. Instead of bringing more condition, Mostafa went for a fuller look in Canada, which seemingly paid off. Mostafa’s last show came in second place at the 2023 Orlando Pro. Meanwhile, ‘Stanimal’s’ last appearance was also at the Orlando Pro, where he trailed behind Hassan in third.
Stan ‘Stanimal’ de Longeaux brought a stellar look and great conditioning, the freaky fullness of Hassan Mostafa sealed the deal in the finals. He is now qualified to compete at the Mr. Olympia show. Meanwhile, Longeaux took second and Nate Spear placed third.
Winner — Hassan Mostafa
Second Place — Stan ‘Stanimal’ de Longeaux
Third Place — Nate Spear
Fourth Place — Prince Boabang
Fifth Place — Morgan MacDonald
Sixth Place — Eiren Gauley
Classic Physique
During prejudging, Robert Waterhouse, Dylan Bursey, and John Le were fighting for center stage. Waterhouse’s last event came at the 2020 British Grand Prix in ninth. Bursey, on the other hand, last impressed judges at the 2022 NPC North America Championships where he took first. Le’s last contest was at the 2022 Texas Pro in fourth.
There were plenty of close comparisons, but the capped shoulders and tight waist of John Le earned him the victory. Dylan Bursey walked away as a runner-up in Canada, with Robert Waterhouse and Issac Baier taking third and fourth.

Ashley Kaltwasser, a total legend in the world of bodybuilding, has accomplished something no one else has! She’s now the very first IFBB Pro to win a jaw-dropping 40 pro shows, and guess what? Three of those remarkable victories were just this year, in 2023.
With her impressive track record, she already had a spot secured for the 2023 Olympia without winning another pro show. However, by winning this contest, she ensured that her qualification remains exclusively hers and doesn’t pass down to anyone else. It’s all about holding on to her well-deserved spot! She did it! Ashley pulled off another incredible victory

2023 Musclecontest Patriots Challenge Pro Results and Scorecards
On Saturday, July 8, in Las Vegas, Nevada, nearly 20 Bikini talents stormed the stage at the 2023 Musclecontest Patriots Challenge Pro looking to earn gold, a cash check, and bragging rights. This show served as a qualifier for the upcoming Olympia contest.
As it stands, competitors have until Oct 9 to guarantee passage to this year’s Olympia show. Among those competing is three-time Bikini Olympia queen Ashley Kaltwasser. While she has already earned her ticket to Olympia, she’s here to block others from attending. In addition, if Kaltwasser proves successful this weekend, she will make history by becoming the only bodybuilder to ever win a total of 40 IFBB Pro League shows.
Aside from Kaltwasser, Ruth Montes is after gold. She already competed at four shows this year. In her last outing, Montes took eighth place at the 2023 Mile High Pro. Ashley Hampton is another viable threat eager to do some damage on stage. She last made a statement at the Charlotte Pro back in April where she finished fourth.
