Winner — Maria Alexsandra Santos Rocha

The prejudging round was the only round scored in this all-Brazilian contest. Rocha won that round with a perfect score. From the moment Rocha stepped onstage for introductions, there was no doubt she would claim the title. Rocha is the sixth Brazilian athlete to qualify for the 2023 Bikini Olympia, where she will make her Olympia debut.


Second Place — Luciana De Souza Santos
Santos improved from her previous showing at the 2023 Musclecontest Campinas Pro, where she finished in sixth place. This was her second career pro show and showed the potential to fare even better in the future. To qualify for the 2023 Olympia, she will have to win a pro show before the cutoff date of Oct. 9, 2023.


Third Place — Mirian Barbosa
Barbosa competed in the Musclecontest Campinas Pro, where she also finished in the bronze position. The third-year pro has never competed outside Brazil, but this has been her first season competing in multiple shows.
