2022 IFBB Sasquatch Pro Show
Bikini Open, Masters 40+, 45+ & 50+
(Federal Way, WA - September 10, 2022)
With the continued success of the IFBB Pro League and associated entities such as the NPC, CPA and NPC Worldwide, 2022 is seeing a record number of
Professional shows to cater to more and more top level competitors filling up the ranks of its members. Promoters Michele Mayberry and Chris Algeo
worked tirelessly to bring such a show to the Pacific Northwest, and thus was born the Sasquatch Pro! The inaugural event in conjunction with the
NPC Northern Classic attracted over 60 entries between Bikini, Figure and their associated Masters Classes. The attention to detail and taking care
of the athletes, officials and all involved's needs was second to none. Figure will be on a separate page and as per usual, the content here will
be expanded over the next while.

Starting with Open Bikini, 26 competitors in all, quite the task for the very experienced judging panel led by Sandra Williamson. Ashley Kaltwasser in
peak shape is a tall order to beat, and stunning Daraja Hill came close with a split decision in Ashley's favor. 3rd was Team Atlas athlete Marie-Eve
Duchaesneau from Canada who only earned her Pro Card in December of 2021 at the Vancouver Pro Qualifier. Italy's Alessia Facchin continues to fine tune
her look gaining more and more experience and top callouts, 4th here. 5th placer Savannah Watchman won Overall at USA's mere weeks earlier so a bright
future for her. So much talent in the rest of the Top 10, including the athletic look of Hope Harper and super photogenic Malu Duarte, this show REALLY
attracted some of the best.

Many of the Masters competitors filled the Open Class of course, but those classes were quite strong in their own right.
Kerryne Henich (10th in Open) took the 40+ class. Notables included Jill Humphrey who's put on good size since she turned Pro
last year, 3rd place here. 45+ winner Michelle Hurst brought a tight look, 4th in 40+. AND last but not least were the 50+
competitors, a great comeback for Seattle's Rose Hendricks, looking chiseled :) She's been a mainstay of the local fitness
community for many years, most notably judging some of the top shows in the region.
