The 2023 Pharlabs Sur Pro Cup Colombia happened from July 21-23 in the bustling town of Medellin, Colombia. Bodybuilders from five divisions stormed the stage in hopes of locking down their Olympia invites, which included threats from the Classic Physique, Men’s Physique, Figure, Bikini, and Wellness.
Fans are counting down the days until the next Mr. Olympia competition, slated to take place on Nov. 2-5 in Orlando, Florida inside the spacious Orange County Convention Center. Unlike last year, athletes will be unable to qualify for the biggest event on the calendar with points. Thus, in order to guarantee entry, competitors must win a Pro show, like the one that went down in Colombia.
The winners of each division are now on a collision course with the respective Olympia champion of their division. You can find a full list of champions from the 2023 Pharlabs Sur Pro Cup Colombia below:
