As a result, some fans and experts expressed the opinion that Brandon Hendrickson has every chance to regain the title this year, especially since he has achieved it once before.
Results of Men's Physique Olympia 2023
The final result in the Men's Physique division turned out to be a big surprise! Erin Banks, the champion of the previous tournament, took only third place this year.
But the real sensation of the tournament was that the gold medal went to an athlete who finished seventh at the previous Olympia. Below are photos, videos, and a detailed overview of the division results starting from the eighth place.
Jeremy Buendia eighth place
Information about Jeremy Buendia's participation added even more interest to the tournament. After a four-year hiatus, the athlete officially returned to the Olympia stage.
Buendia took a break from competitive bodybuilding after suffering a defeat from Brandon Hendrickson at the 2018 Olympia.
The four-time titleholder demonstrated excellent form, but despite this, he could not rise above eighth place.
Kyron Holden seventh place
At the Legion Sports Fest Pro 2023, Kyron Holden surpassed Erin Banks and won gold. However, judges at the Olympia determined the athlete to be in seventh place.
Kyron's best achievement is second place at the 2020 Olympia; last year, he finished sixth.
Corey Morris sixth place
Corey Morris' bodybuilding career began in 2016 when he first stepped on stage at the NPC Southern Muscle Contest and took first place in the Men's Physique category.
Just two years after his debut, Corey earned his Pro Card.
At the 2022 Olympia, the athlete took eighth place. This year, he improves his performance and rises one step higher — 7th place!
Diogo Montenegro fifth place
For the past two years, Diogo Montenegro's performances at the Olympia ended with a bronze medal. In 2023, the Brazilian loses two positions in the overall standings and drops to fifth place.
Emanuel Hunter fourth place
An athlete who didn't even make it into the < span class="text_green">top 10 at the 2022 Olympia provided strong competition to the tournament's main contenders.
Emanuel Hunter makes a big leap and takes fourth place among the top representatives of the Men's Physique division.
Erin Banks third place
Erin Banks demonstrated a phenomenal result over the past few years. The American achieved the highest result of his career by winning gold at the 2022 Olympia.
Not everyone agreed with the judges' decision then, but three months after the Olympia victory, the athlete also wins the Arnold Classic 2023.
This year, Erin couldn't replicate the success of the previous year and finished third.
Brandon Hendrickson second place
Brandon Hendrickson managed to surpass, as some believed, his main competitor. However, he again takes second place and repeats the result of the previous year.
The American wins silver and receives $20,000 as a consolation prize.
Fans believe that Brandon has not exhausted his potential and may win the title more than once!
Ryan Terry winner of Olympia 2023 Men's Physique
It was Ryan Terry who demonstrated a real breakthrough in form and managed to surpass all opponents. Previously, the British athlete's best result on the Olympia stage was a bronze medal.
It's worth noting that Ryan has an excellent back, but the texture and development of the abdominal muscles also amazed both the audience and the judges.
Brandon Hendrickson showcased excellent form, but it seems that Ryan Terry managed to surpass him.
Thus, the British athlete wins his first gold at the most prestigious bodybuilding tournament and becomes the new titleholder.
