Best of luck to NH bodybuilder Nate Spear. He's on the taller side and was second in the SHW class at NA's.Depleted.
The talent pool is ridiculously diluted, too many people are walking around saying they're IFBB Pros that don't reflect the quality of physiques we used to see 20 years ago. The open is trash because the talent go to classic or physique and no matter how much Manion, Weinberger and Palumbo try to push it, Classic and Physique are proving grounds for the open. The open is dying a slow and ugly death and these guys don't want to accept it. It's why these other divisions were created in the first place.
