Athletes to Watch
This is a wide-open show, and any of the athletes could claim the title, but these three are among the early favorites to face the judges in the final callout.
Fabricio Moreira
Fabricio Moreira was the 2023 Tampa Pro winner and placed ninth in the 2023 Olympia 212 contest, won by Keone Pearson. In his second pro season, Moreira is the only competitor from the 2023 Olympia in this lineup. This is his 2024 season debut and a must-win to qualify for the 2024 Olympia.
Lucas Garcia
This is Lucas Garcia’s third pro show of the 2024 campaign. He ranked eighth at the 2024 Toronto Pro Supershow and fourth at the South Florida Pro. He is in his second pro season and seeking his first pro win and Olympia qualification.
Lucas Coelho
This is Lucas Coelho’s 2024 season debut. He was most recently onstage at the 2023 T.R.U. Athlete Pro, where he finished second to winner Naser Mohamed. Coelho has Olympia experience but has not been on that stage since he placed 12th in 2021. His lone pro win is the 2021 Mr. Big Evolution Pro.
