The finals are set for the 2024 WSM competition and it is a new-look field. There are eight competitors who have not staff on the podium in any previous WSM competition.
Mitchell Hooper will enter the weekend looking to defend his title from 2023 WSM. He has been at the top of Strongman for two years now logging multiple victories over the course of the year. He will be tested by Tom Stoltman, who is a former two-time champion at this event.
Evan Singleton impressed during the qualifiers and will be one of the favorites to stand on the podium. He became the first competitor to qualify for the finals, which occurred prior to the final event of the second day. Luke Stoltman won the 2024 Europe’s Strongest Man title just a few weeks ago but had to qualify for the finals in the Stone-off. This is because of the incredible performance by Tristain Hoath. Mathew Ragg was the final victor in the five groups.
