How this is counted: a meeting is one contest where both athletes were judged in the same division. Standing on the same stage in different divisions is not a meeting, because the two were never scored against each other. Jessica Reyes Padilla and Rhea Gayle meet that test 12 times. For scale, this database holds 76 recorded results for Jessica Reyes Padilla and 29 for Rhea Gayle across their full careers. Counted from the contest record as of September 1, 2026.
Jessica Reyes Padilla and Rhea Gayle at their peak
Peak window = the athlete's Olympia-title years where available, otherwise their best-placement years. Derived from recorded contest results. It is a span of years, not a rating.
Jessica Reyes Padilla reached her competitive peak from 2016 to 2017, one of her strongest stretches (32% win rate across 19 contests in the window).
Rhea Gayle reached her competitive peak from 2025 to 2025, winning 1 Olympia title in Women's Figure.
Score these two prime windows against each other on Prime vs Prime, where Olympia dominance is weighted for the size of the field each athlete beat.
Jessica Reyes Padilla and Rhea Gayle, beyond the scoreline
The part of this matchup a results table cannot hold, written by hand rather than derived from the record.
Jessica Reyes Padilla
The win total is the thing. Padilla has won professional figure shows in every year since 2016, including the New York Pro in 2019, the Arnold Classic Australia in 2019, the Tampa Pro in 2022 and the Texas Pro in 2022, 2023 and 2024. Very few competitors in any division win that often for that long.
The Olympia is the one that has not come. Second in 2022, second in 2023, second in 2024, with a third at the Arnold Classic in 2019 and 2020 and a second there in 2022.
Rhea Gayle
That sequence is the whole profile. Very few competitors in any division enter an Olympia seven times, and fewer still improve across almost all of them to finish on top. She went backwards twice and kept entering.
The professional wins came steadily through the climb: the Europa Dallas and Europa Pro in 2020, the Mr Big Evolution Pro in 2021, the Sasquatch Pro and San Antonio Pro in 2022, the Rising Phoenix Arizona Pro in 2023, the Tupelo Pro in 2024 and the Texas Pro in 2025.

Attribute Tug-of-War
Each bar splits a metric by each athlete's share of their combined total. A centered bar means they are level.
Not enough data to compare
Career attributes could not be calculated for one or both athletes.
Career Overlap Timeline
Each bar runs from an athlete's first recorded contest to their last, so the stretch where the two bars cross is the period both were competing. The marks on the bars are the years they met in the same division, one mark per year however many times they met in it. Careers that never cross can still be read against each other on career totals; they just cannot produce a head-to-head record.
Career timeline unavailable
We do not have enough dated contest results to draw a timeline.
Career Stats Comparison
These are career-long figures, drawn from the results we hold for each athlete rather than only the contests the two shared, which is why a pair who never met still has something to compare. Where the two differ, the row marks the stronger figure: the higher number, except on Career Start and Best Placement, where the lower one is better and takes the mark. A row the two are level on marks neither.

This page counts finishing positions
Every figure here comes from where each athlete placed in the contest record. Judging sheets and point spreads are not in the database, so a comparison tells you who finished higher on the night. It does not tell you by how much, or how close the call was.
- A head-to-head result needs both athletes at the same contest in the same division. Two athletes on the same stage in different divisions were never judged against each other, so that show is not counted as a meeting.
- Only contests both athletes actually entered can be settled here. Careers that never overlapped produce a side-by-side record and no head-to-head, because there is nothing to count.
- Career totals cover the results we hold. A missing regional or amateur show lowers a total; it never invents one.
- A shared placement is left as a tie. It is reported separately rather than split between the two athletes.
