Jeremiah Willies
Jeremiah Willies is the only athlete in this lineup who qualified for the 2024 Classic Physique Olympia. He earned his spot by winning the 2024 Fitworld Pro on Apr. 13, 2024, in Los Angeles, CA.
Willies can keep another athlete from qualifying by winning in New Mexico, but his Olympia qualification remains secure even if he does not win. He ranked second in this contest in 2023.
Camilo Diaz
Camilo Diaz finished one spot behind Willies at the 2023 Mid-USA Pro. Diaz has competed three times in 2024. His best finish was fifth at the Pittsburgh Pro on May 11, 2024. Diaz aims to win and qualify for the Olympia for the second time in his career. His last time on that stage was 2022; he finished tied for 16th place.
Lamar Shaw
This will be Lamar Shaw’s third show of the 2024 season. He ranked seventh at the Charlotte Pro but improved significantly and rose to second at the Optimum Classic Pro in Shreveport, LA. He is in his sixth pro season, looking for his second career win. His first was at the 2022 Warrior Classic.
