Horvath still got a top-5 finish, her fifth of the competition, and extended her overall lead to 590 points, 75 points ahead of her nearest competitor Gabriela Miga?a.
Australian Ellie Turner continued her climb up the overall leaderboard with a third-place lift of 190 pounds, putting her in fourth overall.

Miga?a also lifted 190 pounds successfully but finished fourth due to the tie-breaker above. Alexis Raptis put up 190 pounds and ended fifth due to the tie-breaker. She closed out her Saturday with another fifth-straight top-8 finish, putting her eighth overall.

Men’s Event Seven Highlights
With a lift of 300 pounds on the Texas Oak, Smith earned 100 points, catapulting himself to fourth place overall. Notably, Smith trained with strongman Rob Kearney (who is competing in the Rogue Invitational strongman competition) and professional strongmen, Zach and Nick Hadge.
Russian Roman Khrennikov tried to keep pace with Smith but ultimately bowed out at 290 pounds to take second. (Though, he did attempt the Texas Oak twice.) Those points helped him recover from a 15th-place finish in “The Duel II” and put him in first place overall.
The athlete Khrennikov replaced on the leaderboard was two-time CrossFit Games champion Justin Medeiros, who placed 16th in the event with a lift of 260 pounds. He put up a lift of 270 points, but that lift was voided after it was determined he hit the lift after the 45-second window.
