Derek Lunsford Wins 2025 Pittsburgh Pro Men’s Open Bodybuilding​

On May 10, 2025, the stage at the David L. Lawrence Convention Center in Pittsburgh, PA, witnessed a monumental shift in the IFBB Pro League landscape. For the first time in the contest’s long-standing history, the Men’s Open Bodybuilding division was officially contested — and Derek Lunsford emerged as the inaugural champion in an edge-of-your-seat finish that demanded a tiebreaker round against fellow elite competitor, Nick Walker.

This wasn’t just another win. With this victory, Lunsford becomes one of the few men in the modern era to complete the Triple Crown of Bodybuilding: winning the Mr. Olympia, Arnold Classic, and now the Pittsburgh Pro Men’s Open.

These results underscore a clear message: the future of the Open division is stacked with freak-level talent and intense rivalries.

Tiebreaker Drama: Lunsford vs. Walker​

During both prejudging and finals, the judges were faced with a rare deadlock. The final two callouts centered on Lunsford and Walker, both delivering blistering routines that showcased razor-sharp conditioning, massive muscle density, and confident stage presence. Head judge Steve Weinberger later confirmed that the two athletes tied on scorecards after the second round — forcing the use of a tiebreaker posing round, one of the rarest occurrences in pro bodybuilding history.

Despite strong crowd support for Walker, Lunsford edged ahead with a more refined presentation and symmetry that ultimately earned him the judge’s nod.

Prize Purse and Olympia Qualification​

• 1st Place – $100,000 (Lunsford)
• Olympia Qualification – Automatically included, but not needed by Lunsford due to his reigning Olympia title
• Prestige – First official winner of Men’s Open at the Pittsburgh Pro

This win is significant not just for the paycheck, but for solidifying Lunsford’s legacy in a show run by Jim Manion, the president of the IFBB Pro League himself.

Other Divisions: Classic Physique & Men’s Physique Results​

Classic Physique Champion: Terrence Ruffin​

Known for his impeccable aesthetics and flawless posing, Ruffin took the Classic crown with authority. His lines and proportion continue to redefine the division’s ideal.

Men’s Physique Champion: Erin Banks​

Banks, the reigning Olympia champ, delivered once again. Despite being in a division that underplays leg development, his complete package and upper-body detail left no room for doubt.

Judging Dynamics and Fan Reaction​

The final callout between four titans — Lunsford, Walker, Fitzwater, and Bonac — kept the crowd on edge. The split fan base, with roars for both Lunsford and Walker, added to the competitive tension. Ultimately, the judging panel favored Lunsford’s fullness, taper, and flow over Walker’s sheer mass and aggression.

Strategic Analysis: Why Lunsford Won​

• Symmetry and Flow: Lunsford’s lines are textbook — small waist, full delts, and sweeping quads.
• Posing Control: Calm, confident, and commanding. His posing routine capitalized on every strength.
• Peaked Conditioning: Lunsford nailed his peak — dry, tight, and vascular under the lights.
• Presentation: Walked out like a champion. Delivered like one too.
  

Upcoming Divisions on Day Two​

The show continued on Sunday, May 11, featuring:

• Figure
• Bikini
• Women’s Physique
• Wellness

Each of these divisions showcases a different aspect of bodybuilding excellence and will provide insight into who’s on track for Olympia contention later this year.

Key Takeaways​

• Derek Lunsford made history with the first official Men’s Open win at the Pittsburgh Pro.
• A tiebreaker posing round was used for the first time in years — proving the level of competition is at an all-time high.
• Classic and Men’s Physique divisions continue to evolve, with Ruffin and Banks setting the standard.
• Olympia 2025 is already heating up, and this event just raised the stakes.
  

Stay locked in. The road to Vegas starts in Pittsburgh.
