2024 Houston Tournament of Champions Pro Wellness Division Show Preview

Eight athletes will face off within the Lone Star State.

The 2024 Houston Tournament of Champions Pro show will occur in The Woodlands, TX, on Saturday, March 30, 2024. The headline of this event will probably be the IFBB Pro League Wellness division, and eight athletes are slated to grace the stage and face the judges.

The contest’s winner will earn qualification to the 2024 Wellness Olympia on Oct. 10-13, 2024, in Las Vegas, NV. Going into the 2024 Houston Tournament of Champions, not one of the contestants have yet qualified for the 2024 Olympia. The roster for this show is below, with names in alphabetical order, courtesy of the IFBB Pro League website:

2024 Houston Tournament of Champions Pro Roster

  • Juliane Almeida (United States)
  • Amanda Burnett (United States)
  • Nicollette Burns (United States)
  • Haley Johnson (United States)
  • Cassandra Pennington (United States)
  • Alicia Self (Australia)
  • Nicole Stewart (United States)
  • Jennifer Zollars (United States)

Amanda Burnett

Amanda Burnett is the defending champion, having won it in 2023. She will aim to repeat as champion and earn that Olympia qualification. Burnett competed within the 2023 Wellness Olympia in Orlando, FL, ending outside the highest 15.

Burnett was also the 2022 Legion Sports Fest Pro winner. She is coming off a fifth-place finish on the 2024 Wellness International UK event in Birmingham, England.

Jennifer Zollars

Jennifer Zollars ranked second to Burnett within the 2023 edition of this contest. She finished in the highest five of all five pro shows she competed in through the 2023 season with two silver placings but didn’t achieve a win and, subsequently, didn’t advance to the 2023 Olympia.

Zollars kicks off her third pro season at this show and hopes to secure her first victory in the professional ranks. The rematch with Burnett will definitely be one to observe.

Cassandra Pennington

Casandra Pennington was the runner-up to Bruna Seredich on the 2024 Sampson Showdown Pro show on March 23, 2024. Although that rank didn’t rating Pennington qualification for the Olympia, she will be able to still make it to bodybuilding’s grandest stage by winning a professional show before Sept. 15, 2024.

This will probably be the second show of Pennington’s second pro season. She kicked off her pro profession in 2023 with two shows. Her best finish was silver on the Southern California Pro.
