Preliminary nominations are in for Classic Worlds and the 76kg class is shaping up to be a fantastic battle. Top three nominations are:
Agata Sitko POL - 564.5kg
Jessica Buettner CAN - 562.5kg
Kimberly Walford ISV - 547.5kg
Jess Buettner is the reigning world champion in this class and she holds the squat, deadlift and total world records. Despite all this, she's going to have to fight for the top spot this year. Poland's rising star Agata Sitko continues to surprise by nominating AHEAD of Jess, straight off the back of winning the equipped world title in Stavanger late last year. Can she do the double and snatch the classic world title too or will this prove too much to ask for the junior lifter?
As if that wasn't enough of a clash, seven time world champion and world record holder Kimberly Walford has moved up a weight class! Her nomination is a little behind the other two but what can she do at a higher bodyweight? Only time will tell.
These three, plus a packed field that includes Dayna McNeal, Vilma Olsson, Sophia Ellis and the returning Isabella von Weissenberg, will be lifting on 9th June and will be livestreamed in glorious HD for your entertainment. Don't miss it!
