The 58th Olympia, scheduled between Dec. 15-18 in Las Vegas, NV, hosted the 13th edition of the Bikini Olympia. The Bikini Olympia is one of the most popular divisions at the sport’s most prestigious show.
54 Bikini girls graced the 2022 Olympia stage to stake their claim at the Bikini Olympia throne. Reigning champ Jennifer Dorie was the favorite going into the show, and many fans and experts expected her to pick up her second consecutive Bikini Olympia title at the 2022 Olympia. However, Maureen Blanquisco had plans of her own and upset the reigning champ to win her maiden Olympia title.
Janet Layug, Lauralie Chapados, Elisa Pecini, and Ashley Kaltwasser were considered the biggest threats to Dorie’s Bikini Olympia throne. Four Bikini Olympia champs locked horns at the 2022 Olympia to add another O title to their kitty. However, it was Blanquisco who emerged victorious in the end.
