The show also ran masters classes in Men’s Bodybuilding (40+ to 70+), 212 (40+), and Classic Physique, Men’s Physique, Figure and Bikini (each 40+ to 60+). Every placing is on the 2026 Hurricane Pro: Full Scorecards & Placings page.

What It Means for the 2027 Olympia

In Figure, every pro show winner earns a 2027 Olympia spot, so Kassel is in with this win. Her three earlier 2026 wins came before the 2027 qualification period opened on August 31, so they do not count toward it. Bikini, Classic Physique and Men’s Physique run on points, and the top 20 in the standings qualify when the period closes, but two wins in open (non-masters) classes during the period also earn a place. Marquez now has two, the Dominican Republic Pro and this one, so she qualifies under the two-win rule; she led the Bikini points race on 18 before this show. Favors earns 10 points in Classic Physique, and Toplyn adds 10 to the 15 he held in the Men’s Physique standings. Our 2027 Olympia qualified athletes list tracks who is in and who is close.
