Arnold Classic 2022 Full Results For All Divisions

Brandon Curry wins Men’s Open at the Arnold Classic 2022!

The 2022 Arnold Classic returned to its normal time of the first week in March to begin the bodybuilding season. There was a full slate of events planned all throughout the weekend after the 2021 show was cut down due to the pandemic. There were a total of seven divisions in competition over the weekend event. Brandon Curry headlined the event with a win in Men’s Open!

The Men’s Open lineup was hit hard with many names dropping out over the course of the last five weeks. Entering the weekend, Curry was considered the favorite because of his incredible success in recent years. William Bonac made his return to the stage after missing last year’s competition while Steve Kuclo was looking to build off a third place finish in September.

The 2022 Arnold Classic consisted of a total of eight divisions:

Day one showcased the Men’s Open pre-judging seemingly placing either Brandon Curry or William Bonac into the lead position. But the battle was hard fought and it can still be anyone’s game. Justin Rodriguez and Steve Kuclo evened out the top 4. You can check out the full pre-judging callout report recap right here.

As we head into tomorrow’s results – we can also expect the Ed Corney Most Muscular Award being awarded to a top competitor as well as Franco Columbu Best Posing Routine Award.
