In one of the last Mr. Olympia qualifiers for this year, competitors battled for an invitation in Fort Lauderdale, Florida at the 2022 Atlantic Coast Pro. The November 19 event featured competitors from the Classic Physique, Men’s Physique, Bikini and Women’s Physique.
Each competitor this weekend shared the same goal of one day becoming an Olympia champion. The 2022 Mr. Olympia competition takes place next month from December 15 – 18 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The deadline to qualify for the contest ends tomorrow (November 20, 2022), which means this weekend was the final opportunity for IFBB Pro bodybuilders to secure their qualifications.
Unlike last year’s contest, the Figure competitors weren’t slated to compete at this show. This year, many consider Men’s Physique to be the headliner. Andre Ferguson, who placed third at last year’s Atlantic Coast Pro, was eager to assert himself as one of the favorites to beat.
Only one bodybuilder from each of the divisions emerged victorious. Check out a full list of winners and results below.
