2022 Vancouver Pro Results — Iain Valliere Leads the Way
As the 2022 Olympia inches ever closer, every IFBB Pro League competition will hold more significance. With qualification potentially on the line, men’s and women’s athletes who have not yet earned a spot in the prestigious contest will need to take advantage of every chance they get on a stage.
The latest chance to punch a potential ticket to Las Vegas this December was the 2022 Vancouver Pro. This contest — which occurred in British Columbia, Canada, on July 17, 2022 — featured six divisions between men’s and women’s competitors. By its end, it served as a quality jumping-off point for athletes like Men’s Open winner Iain Valliere. Valliere qualified for the 2022 Mr. Olympia on December 16-18, 2022, in Las Vegas, NV, thanks to his win.
Here’s a rundown of the Men’s Open results from the 2022 Vancouver Pro:

According to NPC News Online, Valliere’s win in the Vancouver Pro is the fifth victory of his professional career. It also marks the Canadian athlete’s first appearance at a sanctioned contest since a seventh place result in the Men’s Open category at the 2021 Mr. Olympia. After showing off his latest work with his strength, muscle, and conditioning, Valliere will get the chance to topple some potential peers like Hadi Choopan, Nick Walker, and Hunter Labrada at the 2022 Mr. Olympia.
Other Men’s Winners
While every division victor earned automatic qualification for the 2022 Mr. Olympia, it’s worth noting that the 2022 Vancouver Pro is a Tier 4 competition under the IFBB Pro League’s standards. A Tier 4 contest has the least weighted points for second through fifth-place finishers. Even then, the athletes who didn’t win in British Columbia but still performed relatively well earned valuable points toward their season totals. Those could come in handy with individual qualifications for the Mr. Olympia.
The top three athletes in each Olympia division at the end of the qualification period on November 20, 2022, earn places in the competition.
Here are the results for the other Men’s divisions at the 2022 Vancouver Pro:
