Okyu Basar, Jared Thompson victorious during the 2023 Tupelo Pro!
The 2023 Tupelo Pro took place on Saturday in Tupelo, MS. The Classic Physique and Figure divisions were on display with winners earning a spot in the 2023 Olympia.
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.
In the end, it was Jared Thompson who won Classic Physique and will get a chance to go up against the best in the world, including four-time champion Chris Bumstead. Okyu Basar also punched her ticket to the biggest show in the world with a victory in Figure.
The full results from the show have been announced. Below, check out the full breakdown, along with an official scorecard.
