Here are the full show Bodybuilding results from the 2023 Legion Sports Fest Pro!
The 2023 Legion Sports Fest Pro, organized by the IFBB Pro League, took place over weekend of Oct 7-8th, 2023 in Reno, Nevada, with the athletes gunning for a spot on the Mr. Olympia stage this year. Many divisions in bodybuilding were on display hoping to qualify for the biggest show of the year, including eight IFBB Pro League contests. The winner of the men’s open show was Charles Griffin.
Prejudging took place in the morning with all finals taking place during the night portion of the show. The 2023 Legion Sports Fest Pro served as one of the last platforms for these athletes to secure their spot at Mr. Olympia, slated for November 2-5 in the Orange County Convention Center.
The Olympia qualification system has changed this year. If an athlete did not finish in the top three in the previous year, or top five in Men’s Open, they will have to win a show to qualify. The points qualification system is no more. Also, former winners of an Olympia title have lifetime eligibility.
