Men’s Open Athletes to Watch
The three early favorites for the Men’s Open division are below.
Samson Dauda
The 2023 Arnold Classic champion is two weeks from the 2024 Mr. Olympia contest in Las Vegas, NV, on Oct. 11-12, 2024. Winning this show would give him an early qualification for the 2025 contest, should he not win or finish in the top three at the 2024 Olympia.
Dauda most recently competed at the Arnold Classic UK in March 2024, finishing second to winner Hadi Choopan.
Theo Leguerrier
Theo Leguerrier will be the home-country favorite. Thanks to his win at the 2023 Japan Pro, he is also qualified for the 2024 Olympia. He has two career wins under his belt, but he has never won a pro show in France, which is his goal.
Andrea Presti
Andrea Presti competed twice in 2024 but could not secure a 2024 Olympia qualification. He would have been the favorite going into this competition had it not been for Dauda’s entry into the lineup. Presti is a three-time winner of the Mr. Big Evolution competition.
