There's a healthy amount of competition at the Figure Olympia, and based this morning's prejudging round, defending champion Erin Stern is going to be given a run for her money. The competitors shone brighter than the peace signs on Larissa Reis's posing suit. Stern was in great form, there's no doubt about that, but Nicole Wilkins came to Vegas in top shape, if not her best ever. She's a strong competitor looking to reclaim her title.
Also of note is the enigmatic Ava Cowan, making her Olympia debut and definitely not fading into the background. She displayed the tight physique that has made her famous, and you should expect to see her in the Top 5.
