2022 World’s Strongest Man Finals Results (LIVE UPDATES)

A complete breakdown of the 2022 World’s Strongest Man finals results.
The 2022 World’s Strongest Man finals are well underway after three days of grueling qualifier events. 10 strongman competitors battle to win the title of World’s Strongest Man. There’s no clear winner yet – but results are being updated as each event comes to a close during the finals. Read on for our full recap and breakdown of the finals.
The 2022 World’s Strongest Man runs from May 24-29th in Sacramento, California. After much success last year, this is the second time in seven years that the event has returned to California for the proceedings. Generation Iron has been working with WSM’s team to bring you direct coverage. As to be expected from the best of the best – the strongman competitors have been giving their all throughout the entirety of the event – along with some dramatic close calls, twists, and turns.
During the qualifying rounds, we had a few close calls with injuries and a legitimate drop out due to injury. First Evan Singleton was reportedly out of WSM after the first day of qualifiers – but ultimately was able to make a miraculous 180 and return to the roster within 24 hours. Medical professionals determined that he was still capable of safely competing.
However, strongman Shane Flowers was not so lucky. During the second day of qualifiers at the WSM, Flowers announced that he would be dropping out of the competition due to injury.
There is a lot of seriously powerful talent making it into the top 10 finalists. As predicted, Tom Stoltman strongly secured a finals spot – along with former World’s Strongest Man champions Oleksii Novikov and Brian Shaw. Stoltman’s brother, Luke, also made it into the finals – which will provide us with some truly exciting brother vs brother matches over the weekend.

World’s Strongest Man 2022 Finals Day One Results
The first day of the World’s Strongest Man 2022 finals held in Sacramento, CA has begun with the top 10 finalists from the qualifying rounds battling it out in three events–KNAACK Giant’s Medley, Deadlift, and Flintsone Barbell. Below Generation Iron will be updating the results as they come through.
World’s Strongest Man 2022 Finals Day 1 Events

KNAACK Giant’s Medley
Deadlift
Flintstone Barbell

KNAACK Giants Medley
The KNAACK Giant’s Medley is very similar to a traditional loading race. The big difference is that the event consists of a box carry and a super yoke. The 10 finalists carried two KNAACK Boxes weighing 120 kilograms (265 pounds) boxes, then a 455 kilogram (1,003 pounds) for a length of 10 meters–with a time cap of 75 seconds.
Mitchell Hooper was the one to close out the first event of the World’s Strongest Man finals. The reigning champ, Tom Stoltman, barely scraped by Oleksii Novikov to claim second-placed, beating Novikov by one-tenth of a second.

Mitchell Hooper – 21.96s
Tom Stoltman – 24.75s
Oleksii Novikov – 24.84s
Luke Stoltman – 28.72s
Martins Licis – 30.60s
Brian Shaw – 30.78s
Trey Mitchell – 32.54s
Gabriel Rheaume – 33.87s
Maxime Boudreault – 34.11s
Eythor Ingolfsson Melsted – 37.61s

Deadlift
The second event of the 2022 World’s Strongest Man finals requires the competitors to deadlift a car weighing 360 kilograms (794 pounds) for as many reps as possible. A time cap of 60 seconds will be in place.
COMING SOON

Flintstone Barbell
In this event, a barbell is loaded with a pair of giant stones on either side. Strongmen then take turns attempting to lift the same weight to advance to the next round. Weight increases with each new round. The rounds continue until only one strongman remains. In essence, this event is a behind-the-neck press for max weight.
COMING SOON

2022 World’s Strongest Man Day 2 Finals
The 2022 World’s Strongest Man finals Day 2 will commence on Sunday, May 29th. This will be the last day of events and end with the awards ceremony announcing the champion. Generation Iron will update the final results as they become available on Sunday.
Below are the scheduled events for the 2022 World’s Strongest Man day two of the finals:

2022 World’s Strongest Man: Day Two Qualifier Results
The second day of qualifiers featured two events — the car walk and log lift. This is the second day of three qualifiers where competitors will earn points in hopes of making it through to the finals over the weekend.
Before the second day of competition began, Evan Singleton announced that he will be returning to action. He went into anaphylactic shock prior to the start of day one and was unable to breathe. The reaction has subsided and Singleton will return to the field.

Car Walk
The car all led off day two in Sacramento. Competitors were asked to lift a hollowed out car and walk it down a 25-meter course. This is an event that tests speed and strength together. All parts of the body are engaged while the car is in the air because strongmen must keep it balanced while making sure the tires do not touch the ground.

Sadik Hadzovic also returned to the stage in New Jersey after his Men’s Physique victory in Men’s Physique. Despite already holding a ticket to the Olympia, Hadzovic wanted to prove that he is ready for the biggest stage. Lauralie Chapados was victorious in Bikini while Neil Currey won Classic Physique.

2022 Musclecontest Ireland Pro Results

Robert Taylor wins Men’s 212 at the Musclecontest Ireland Pro!
The 2022 Musclecontest Ireland Pro took place over the weekend and was highlighted by the Men’s 212 division. This gave competitors a chance to earn a trip to the 2022 Olympia. Robert Taylor came out victorious and will have a chance to compete on the biggest stage in the sport.
Taylor was able to pickup his first victory in his only competition of 2022. Last season, Taylor appeared on stage twice. He finished ninth during the Europa Pro Championships and eighth at the Yamamoto Cup Pro. Now, Taylor has earned a trip to Las Vegas to compete at the Olympia in December.
Derek Lunsford was able to pull off an upset of Shaun Clarida during the 2021 Olympia in the 212 division. Clarida has since made the jump to Open Bodybuilding and earned a spot at the Olympia after his victory at the 2021 Legion Sports Fest Pro.

2022 Indy Pro Results

Blessing Awodibu wins the 2022 Indy Pro!
The 2022 Indy Pro took place on Saturday and featured some of the top competitors in the sport. There were three divisions present at the Indiana Convention Center with hopes of earning qualification to the biggest show of the year. In the end, it was Blessing Awodibu who was victorious in Men’s Open.
The show was highlighted by the return of Awodibu. He finished third at this competition last year before appearing at the New York Pro the very next week. Awodibu decided to take the rest of 2021 off in hopes of putting on size and making improvements.
The battle between Awodibu and reigning champion Justin Rodriguez was the battle to watch coming in. Rodriguez continues to be an up-and-coming talent in Men’s Open. He was looking to build off his performance at the Arnold Classic, where he took fifth place.
Maxx Charles and Charles Griffen were also viewed as dark-horse competitors entering Indianapolis. Bryan Balzano picked up a victory in Men’s 212 while Theresa Ivancik was victorious in Women’s Bodybuilding.
The results from the show on Saturday night have been announced. There were three divisions that saw winners earn qualification to the 2022 Olympia. Checkout which divisions have named winners and the official score cards below!
