Mr. Olympia Qualification List, Points Standings
- Updated: September 4, 2013
With the Nordic Pro in the books, the final list of competitors who have qualified for the Mr. Olympia later this month is set. 16 names are in and depending on if they will go or not still remains to be seen. Two-time reigning champion Phil Heath will surely be in Las Vegas and he remains the favorite to keep the Sandow in his possession. He will be up against what some have called the deepest Olympia line-up of all time, with former winners Jay Cutler and Dexter Jackson looking for an upset in their 40s and 2012 runner-up Kai Greene and rookie sensation Mamdouh “Big Ramy” Elssbiay also on his heels.
Here are the names who have already punched their ticket:
