Jacque Till Returns to the Emerald Cup:
AFTER 18 YEARS IT 'S STILL TILL !
April 21, Bellevue, Washington: The NPC Emerald Cup is a giant annual regional event in the Pacific Northwest, and it regularly draws competitors from throughout the country along with a sprinkling of international contestants. This year, however, was special. Promoters Brad and Elaine Craig were welcoming this year's entrants to the 30th anniversary Emerald Cup, and as usual, the women's events were sterling.
New York, New York, May 19th: The Tribeca Performing Arts Center has seen its fair share of gala events with countless triumphs of success by those who have taken the stage at this little corner of Manhattan, but for Juliana Malacarne it will forever carry a very special remembrance. For this pocket-sized Brazilian with a bombshell body and an appreciative fan base who has waited a very long time to see her regain a shining moment in the sport she loves, this night brought back fond memories of what she calls “the good old days as an amateur competitor”. In front of a lively New York sellout crowd, Malacarne and an additional 28 contestants jammed the Tribeca stage to form the largest pro Physique competition to date. But this event, in a division that is still undergoing its growing pains, the day belonged to Juliana.
Wennerstrom's 2012 Europa Show of Champions Report:
PATRICIA MELLO : FIVE FOOT NINE AND SHE IS FINE!
Orlando, Florida, April 27-28: Okay, so there have now been five Pro Physique division contests this year, and as might be expected, this fifth edition was notably different than the prior four. For starters, it was the largest event thus far with 21 entries and the range of the field included six international entrants, several contestants making their debut at a Physique division event, and of course the stalwart Marina Lopez entering her fifth Physique contest as the only competitor who has entered all five.
2012 Los Angeles Pro Grand Prix
Culver City, April 14th: The history of the new Physique division for women may is still in its infancy, but the field for this most recent event helped raise the competitive bar with a decidedly improved group of competitors that also featured a broad range in the variety of their collective physiques. With contestants ranging in height from 4-11 ¾ to 5-9 in addition to entrants making their pro debut, to highly decorated competitors who have had past experience at events as prestigious of the Ms. Olympia and Ms. International, the competitive nature of these Physique events is heating up quickly. Promoted by Jon Lindsay and staged at the Veteran's Auditorium in Culver City, this first annual Los Angeles Grand Prix featured a full complement of amateur events as well as the Pro Men's and Women's Physique divisions, with a total number of entries topping 400 – 16 of which filled the field for the women's Physique division.
KARIN KIMURA WINS GOVERNOR'S CUP PHYSIQUE
Sacramento, California, March 24: The California Governor's Cup became the third contest in a calendar month to feature a Pro Physique division, and like the prior two events, this competition produced another new winner. Like the inaugural Desert Muscle Classic in February and the more recent St. Louis Pro a week prior to this contest, the field was, again, of the compact variety with just nine contestants competing.
