The Golden State will welcome competitors from the Wellness division at the 2023 Musclecontest Southern California Pro on June 10. This show serves as a qualifying event for the Mr. Olympia competition.
This year, athletes have fewer months to qualify for the biggest event of the year: 2023 Mr. Olympia, taking place November 2-5 in Orlando, Florida inside the Orange County Convention Center. Whoever emerges victorious at this contest will go on to face the newly crowned reigning Wellness Olympia, Francielle Mattos.
In addition, the point system has been removed, so athletes are no longer able to grant their passage by accumulating top placements at shows throughout the season. The only way to stand atop the Olympia stage is to earn first place at a pro show.
As with any show, there were a number of frontrunners such as Lili Dong, who claimed bronze at the recent Pittsburgh Pro and New York Pro. She was also runner-up at the 2023 Miami Beach Muscle Pro. Meanwhile, Anne-Marie Gobeil was on a mission to win gold. Though, to accomplish that, she’ll also have to get past fan-favorite Simara Walter.
