Olympia Qualification Impact​

The Men's Open contest was part of the 2026 Olympia qualification schedule. The Atlanta victory therefore gave Hollingshead an important opportunity to secure his place at the 2026 Mr. Olympia.

Men's 212 Bodybuilding Results​

Juan Aleman emerged as the 2026 Lenda Murray Atlanta Pro 212 champion, defeating a field that included former Atlanta winner Marco Ruz and several experienced 212 competitors.

Men's 212 Top 5​

  1. Juan Aleman — Mexico
  2. Marco Ruz — France
  3. Cody Drobot — Canada
  4. Charleston Cornish — Bahamas
  5. Muzi Maluleke — South Africa
Aleman won with three points, while Ruz finished second with six points and Drobot placed third with nine. Charleston Cornish and Muzi Maluleke completed the top five.

Dwayne Quamina finished sixth, followed by Christian Palmer, Karol Malecki, Isaiah Hawthorne, and Sylvester Cain.

The victory was particularly significant for Aleman because the 212 division uses a win-and-you're-in route for Olympia qualification during the qualifying season.

Classic Physique Results​

Gabriel Zancanelli captured the Classic Physique title in Atlanta after a decisive performance against a deep lineup.

Classic Physique Top 5​

  1. Gabriel Zancanelli — Brazil

Aaron Owens placed sixth, followed by Mahfuz Hawit in seventh and Matt Orchard in eighth. Diogo Resende and Shuai Ren rounded out the top 10.

Zancanelli was already listed in the official Olympia qualification standings before Atlanta, but his victory further strengthened his position heading into the final stretch of the season.

Men's Physique Results​

Corey Morris won the Men's Physique championship in Atlanta, finishing ahead of Rhyan Clark and Ismael Martinez Dominguez.

Women's Bodybuilding Results​

Alida Opre delivered the winning performance in Women's Bodybuilding, taking the title ahead of Ranya Temizkan and Patti Hanson.

Women's Bodybuilding Top 5​

Nina Amporful finished sixth, Mayla Ash seventh, Sheena Ohlig eighth, Chiharu Nakajima ninth, and Gabriela Pena De La Vega tenth.

The Women's Bodybuilding victory was especially important because the division remains one of the most closely watched paths to the Ms. Olympia stage. The official Olympia list before Atlanta included reigning champion Andrea Shaw along with several other already-qualified athletes, leaving additional qualification opportunities open for competitors such as Opre.

Fitness Results​

Abby Bolton won the Fitness division after a close battle with Michaela Pavleova.

Fitness Top 3​

  1. Abby Bolton — Canada
  2. Michaela Pavleova — Slovakia
  3. Michelle Gales — USA
Bolton and Pavleova both finished with 15 points overall. Bolton's score came from nine points in judging and six in the finals, while Pavleova recorded three points in judging and 12 in the finals. Michelle Gales finished third with 24 points.

The result is notable because Fitness combines physique judging with the athletes' routines, making the final outcome dependent on performance across both portions of the competition.

Figure Results​

Nicole Zenobia Graham won the Figure title in Atlanta, beating Cherish Richardson and Kristen McGregor.

Figure Top 5​

  1. Nicole Zenobia Graham — USA
  2. Cherish Richardson — USA
  3. Kristen McGregor — Jamaica
  4. Michelle Jones — UK
  5. Zulfiya Bitiyeva — Kazakhstan
Graham dominated the scorecard with three points, while Richardson finished second with six and McGregor third with nine.

Misaki Kikuchi finished sixth, followed by Sara Maslakova, Elaina Gu, Elin Sellgren, and Nancy Winkel in the remaining top-10 positions.

The Figure division has undergone a major transition following Cydney Gillon's retirement from competitive bodybuilding, making every new pro victory especially important as the next generation establishes itself. The official 2026 Olympia qualification list already includes several of the division's leading contenders.

Bikini Results​

Mahsa Akbarimehr took first place in the Bikini division, finishing ahead of Ashley Hampton and Jessica Liu.

Bikini Top 5​

  1. Mahsa Akbarimehr — USA
  2. Ashley Hampton — USA

  5. Lexus Redmond — USA
Akbarimehr finished with four points, followed by Hampton with five and Liu with nine.

Raven Troyer placed sixth, Rachel Linares seventh, Carina Helander eighth, Verushqa Andrade ninth, and Megan Lacosse tenth.

Akbarimehr entered Atlanta already carrying points in the 2026 Bikini Olympia standings, but the victory represents a major step because the Bikini division operates with a highly competitive qualification race.

Women's Physique Results​

Lenka Ferencukova won Women's Physique after finishing clearly ahead of Sheronica Henton and Meghan Morrison.

Women's Physique Top 5​

  1. Lenka Ferencukova — Czech Republic

The victory gives Ferencukova an important opportunity to advance to the 2026 Women's Physique Olympia, a division featuring established names such as Sarah Villegas and Natalia Abraham Coelho.

Wellness Results​

Rosemary Rodriguez claimed the Wellness title in Atlanta, defeating Pamela Rodrigues and Mina Greenlee.

Wellness Top 5​

  1. Rosemary Rodriguez — Paraguay
  2. Pamela Rodrigues — Brazil
  3. Mina Greenlee — USA
  4. Lisa Meiswinkel — Germany
  5. Jessica Yamazaki — Brazil
Rodriguez scored three points to win the division. Pamela Rodrigues finished second with six points, while Mina Greenlee completed the podium with nine.

Lisa Meiswinkel, who won the 2025 Lenda Murray Atlanta Pro Wellness title, finished fourth this time around.

Jasmine Baker placed sixth, Alicia Romero seventh, and Marissa Andreou eighth. Nicole Corrigan and Dayse Do Valle rounded out the top 10.

Rodriguez's win is particularly notable because she entered the show with points already recorded in the 2026 Wellness Olympia qualification standings. The victory gives her a much stronger position heading toward the Olympia stage.

Fit Model Results​

Fit Model was also part of the 2026 Lenda Murray ATL Pro Supershow, making it one of the 11 Open divisions contested over the weekend.

Fit Model Top 5​

  1. Misty Yang — China
  2. Kayla Deet — USA

Marina Maliden finished sixth, Haydenn McCall seventh, and Myra Golloso of the Philippines eighth.

The inclusion of Fit Model is an important correction to earlier versions of the article. The official IFBB Pro League event listing confirms that Fit Model was one of the divisions contested in Atlanta.

Biggest Storylines From the 2026 Atlanta Pro​

Bodybuilder Stars From the 2026 Atlanta Pro

James Hollingshead Wins Men's Open​

James Hollingshead produced one of the weekend's headline performances by winning the Men's Open Bodybuilding division. He finished six points ahead of runner-up Regan Grimes on the combined scorecard.

Juan Aleman Takes 212​

Juan Aleman emerged as the 212 champion, defeating Marco Ruz and Cody Drobot. His three-point score was the lowest possible total on the judging-only scorecard, giving him a clear victory.

Gabriel Zancanelli Captures Classic Physique​

Gabriel Zancanelli added another major result to his 2026 season by taking Classic Physique gold in Atlanta. The Brazilian defeated Momar Bah and Robert Timms.

What the 2026 Lenda Murray Atlanta Pro Results Mean for Olympia​

The Atlanta Pro was not simply another stop on the IFBB Pro League calendar. It was a designated 2026 Olympia qualifier across all 11 Open divisions.

That makes the results particularly important as the 2026 Olympia qualification window approaches its conclusion.

The official IFBB Pro League qualification list already shows a substantial number of athletes qualified across the different divisions, while others remain in contention through points or additional victories.

For the Atlanta winners, the victories provided a direct path toward the Olympia stage. For athletes who finished behind them, the remaining qualifying opportunities become increasingly important as the season moves toward its final contests.

Hollingshead getting the Open win is probably the biggest takeaway for me. Regan Grimes and Joseph Palacios made it a solid top 3 too.

That Fitness battle was crazy close as well, 15 points each. Atlanta definitely gave us some interesting Olympia storylines this year.

James Hollingshead finally getting the Open win here was a cool result, especially with Regan Grimes right behind him. From the shows I’ve watched, James has always had the size and structure, so seeing him put it together for the win was pretty satisfying.
