Bikini Division Athletes to Watch
As of Aug. 29, 2024, 14 competitors are set to be in the Bikini division lineup. The three favorites in that contest are below.
Jiaqi Wei
China’s Jiaqi Wei could be the spoiler for this event. She won the 2024 China DMS Pro on Mar. 1, 2024, qualifying her for the 2024 Bikini Olympia. If she wins this show, then no Olympia qualification will be awarded.
Jiaqi Wei could keep another athlete from joining her on the Olympia stage. Whether she wins this show or not, her Olympia spot remains secure.
Wenjun Duan
Wenjun Duan is coming off a runner-up finish to Ashley Kaltwasser at the 2024 Tokyo Pro on Sunday, Aug. 25, 2024. The rookie is looking for her first IFBB Pro League win and Olympia qualification. Finishing one spot behind the all-time winningest competitor in her division could be a big confidence boost going into this contest.
Yume Kurokawa
This will be Yume Kurokawa’s eighth show of the 2024 season. Her best finish was third at the Taiwan Pro. She is in her fourth pro season and seeks first career win and Olympia appearance.
