2025 World’s Strongest Man Leaderboard
The qualifying round of the 2025 World’s Strongest Man spans two days, Thursday and Friday. Next, athletes are divided into five groups, each consisting of five competitors. Then, they will face a series of events designed to earn points. After that, only the top two from each group will advance. Finally, ten athletes will move on to the finals. Moreover, the final competition is scheduled for May 17-18, 2025.
The field featured some of the sport’s biggest names. Three-time WSM champion Tom Stoltman returned to defend his legacy. Mitchell Hooper, the 2023 titleholder, also stepped back into the arena. But the lineup was more than just familiar faces—it was a mix of experience, power, and rising talent from across the globe.
This year’s qualifying format brought a major change. Twenty-five competitors were split into five groups. Each group faced five events over two days. The top two finishers from each group advanced. For the first time, athletes carried a ranked score from the qualifying rounds into the Finals—raising the stakes from the very first event.
In the end, Rayno Nel, reigning SCL (Strongman Champions League) World Champion, emerged victorious. His grip, power, and grit secured him the 2025 World’s Strongest Man title—marking a historic moment in the sport’s history.

Atlas Stones Heat Showdowns
First, Luke Stoltman faced Eddie Williams. Despite Williams reaching the first stone first, Stoltman was faster to load it. The weight jump at the third stone slowed both, but Stoltman managed to lift the fourth, only to drop it before settling it on the platform.
Next, Pavlo Kordiyaka went shirtless, relying on skin grip and tacky on his arms to handle the hot stones under Sacramento’s sun. Both he and Shane Flowers loaded the first stones simultaneously, but Kordiyaka pulled ahead by the third and thrilled the crowd by loading the fourth stone. He struggled on the fifth, unable to lock it in. Flowers did not attempt the fifth stone. A five-second penalty was given to Flowers for rolling the fourth stone off its ring.
Meanwhile, Paddy Haynes edged past Ondrej Fojtů, who stopped at three stones. Fojtů managed to lap the fifth stone but couldn’t lock it onto the platform.

Mitchell Hooper and Trey Mitchell Battle
In the next heat, Hooper stumbled at the start, dropping the first stone and losing precious time. Trey Mitchell stayed steady, becoming the first to load all five stones. Hooper tried twice at the fifth stone but could not move it.
Finally, the top contenders Rayno Nel and Tom Stoltman faced off. Nel, holding the overall lead, knew that loading all five stones would secure the championship. Otherwise, he only needed to beat Hooper’s time on four stones.
Stoltman, also shirtless, lifted the first three stones in one motion, building a clear lead over Nel. Nel loaded his fourth stone, matching Hooper’s time, then attempted the fifth stone. The whistle blew before he could lock it in.

Nel Secures Historic Title
After tense moments, officials announced Nel’s time was one second faster than Hooper’s. This confirmed Rayno Nel as the 2025 World’s Strongest Man champion. His grip, power, and strategy made history.

Tom Stoltman dominated Group One with a strong, consistent performance. He finished the Load Medley in a swift 38.71 seconds and nailed seven reps on the Deadlift Ladder. Moreover, his seven reps in the Overhead Medley and ten successful keg tosses sealed his lead.
Next, Eddie Williams kept pace but couldn’t match Stoltman’s speed. Although he completed the Load Medley in 44.70 seconds and matched seven deadlift reps, his overall points fell short. Still, he managed a respectable fourth place in the Overhead Medley.
Finally, Thomas Evans and Schoonwinkel showed solid endurance but lagged in pace. Both finished the Load Medley and Deadlift Ladder close to each other. Meanwhile, Andrade trailed behind, missing critical reps in the ladder and overhead events, which limited his total score.
🇨🇦 Group Two
| # | Athlete | Load Medley | Deadlift Ladder | Overhead Medley | Keg Toss | Stone Medley | Total Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 🇨🇦 M. Hooper | 4 in 38.60 | 7 reps | 7 in 59.74 | 8 in 27.97 | — | 20.5 |

| 5 | 🇳🇿 M. Ragg | 4 in 43.79 | 7 reps | 4 in 31.07 | 9 in 32.22 | — | 10.5 |
Mitchell Hooper led Group Two with an impressive 20.5 total points. His 38.60 seconds on the Load Medley showed speed, and seven deadlift reps kept him in front. He also recorded strong overhead reps and keg tosses, which pushed him ahead.
Meanwhile, Paul Haynes stayed competitive throughout the events. He edged ahead with eight deadlift reps but fell behind in the overhead medley. Nevertheless, his consistent performance earned him a solid second place.
On the other hand, athletes like B. Johnson and Derwinsky struggled to keep up with the leaders. Despite completing their reps, their slower times in the Keg Toss hurt their total points. New Zealand’s M. Ragg also showed flashes of potential but lacked consistency.

🇿🇦 Group Three
| # | Athlete | Load Medley | Deadlift Ladder | Overhead Medley | Keg Toss | Stone Medley | Total Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 🇿🇦 Rayno Nel | 4 in 42.36 | 8 reps | 5 in 36.81 | 8 in 29.41 | — | 17 |

| 5 | 🇵🇱 Kieliszkowski | 4 in 46.28 | 0 reps | 4 in 26.25 | 7 in 31.97 | — | 5 |
Rayno Nel took early control with strong numbers in the Load Medley and Deadlift Ladder. His eight deadlift reps gave him an edge. Additionally, his steady performance in the Overhead Medley and Keg Toss maintained his lead.
Conversely, Steven Flowers kept close behind. His fast Load Medley time of 40.13 seconds and six deadlift reps kept him competitive. However, slower overhead times limited his points compared to Nel.
Meanwhile, L. Hatton and E. Aryee both delivered consistent but not outstanding performances. They maintained solid placements but lacked the extra speed to challenge the leaders. Kieliszkowski’s performance was hindered by zero deadlift reps, leaving him far behind.
🇺🇸 Group Four
| # | Athlete | Load Medley | Deadlift Ladder | Overhead Medley | Keg Toss | Stone Medley | Total Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 🇺🇸 T. Mitchell | 4 in 49.38 | 10 reps | 7 in 1:00.54 | 6 in 27.22 | — | 15 |

| — | 🇬🇧 L. Richardson* | 2 in 13.53 | — | — | — | — | WD |
Trey Mitchell excelled in the Deadlift Ladder with 10 reps. His steady pace in the Load Medley and Overhead Medley ensured he stayed near the top. Despite some slower keg tosses, he finished with a strong point total.
Secondly, Oto Fojtů matched Mitchell’s points but fell short on the Keg Toss. His fast Load Medley time kept him in the running, though fewer reps in the Deadlift Ladder hurt his standing. His overhead reps were solid but not enough to surpass the leader.
Meanwhile, Boudreault and Hoath showed flashes of brilliance. Boudreault’s perfect keg toss score of 10 in 46.91 seconds stood out. However, inconsistencies in deadlifts and medleys kept them from reaching the top spots.

🇺🇦 Group Five
| # | Athlete | Load Medley | Deadlift Ladder | Overhead Medley | Keg Toss | Stone Medley | Total Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 🇺🇦 P. Kordiyaka | 4 in 38.61 | 4 reps | 6 in 46.35 | 4 in 12.81 | — | 15.5 |
| 2 | 🇬🇧 L. Stoltman | 4 in 41.21 | 2 reps | 6 in 49.98 | 9 in 34.81 | — | 15 |
| 3 | 🇬🇧 A. Flynn | 4 in 45.66 | 6 reps | 5 in 46.99 | 6 in 20.16 | — | 13 |
| 4 | 🇺🇸 N. Guardione | 4 in 41.34 | 4 reps | 5 in 1:07.85 | 8 in 28.38 | — | 12.5 |
| — | 🇺🇸 Singleton* | 2 in 14.25 | — | — | — | — | WD |
Pavlo Kordiyaka led Group Five with quick times and solid reps. His 38.61-second Load Medley showed great speed. Meanwhile, his four deadlift reps and six overhead reps contributed to his leading total points.
Next, Luke Stoltman stayed competitive with a strong keg toss performance of nine reps. His consistent Load Medley and overhead medley kept him close to Kordiyaka. Yet, his fewer deadlift reps held him back slightly.
Finally, athletes like Flynn and Guardione performed steadily but lacked consistency. Flynn’s six deadlift reps and Guardione’s solid keg tosses were highlights. However, both couldn’t break into the top two spots due to slower overall times and fewer reps.

2025 World’s Strongest Man: Day Two Qualifier Results
Event Four: Titan’s Toss
The Titan’s Toss returned with fierce intensity. Each competitor had to launch 10 sandbags, each weighing 14 kilograms (30 pounds), over a 3.65-meter (12-foot) high bar. While the bags were uniform in weight, the throwing distances increased progressively, testing both explosive power and precision.
To raise the challenge, athletes faced two throws each from seven, eight, nine, and ten meters. Afterward, they attempted a single toss from eleven and twelve meters. Every athlete was given only one chance per bag — there were no second tries.
If a bag touched the top of the bar but still cleared it, officials marked it as a successful attempt. As always, timing was everything. Those who could balance speed with accuracy found themselves ahead in the standings heading into the final event of the day.

Event Five: Stone Medley
The Stone Medley capped off Day Two with raw power on full display. Athletes were tasked with lifting and placing a series of increasingly heavy Atlas Stones onto raised platforms. The stones grew in weight and demanded perfect technique under extreme fatigue.
Each competitor had to move as quickly as possible while maintaining control. The stones, typically ranging from 120 to over 180 kilograms, tested grip, endurance, and composure. Missing a lift or dropping a stone could cost precious seconds — and valuable points.
By the end of the event, only the most conditioned and technically sound athletes came out ahead. It was a defining moment for those aiming to punch their ticket to the finals. For some, it was a last chance to climb the leaderboard.

However, Tristain Hoath owns 2.0 points after 51.60 seconds, and Luke Richardson is out. Additionally, the Briton withdrew with a torn right biceps after just two implements in 13.53 seconds. Finally, that injury reshapes the group, leaving one fewer rival for the remaining four men.

2025 World’s Strongest Man Leaderboard & Event Schedule
So far, the 2025 World’s Strongest Man is off to a fierce start in Sacramento, California. The first two days serve as the qualifying round, featuring five groups of five athletes. By Friday evening, only the top two athletes from each group will advance to the Final on May 17–18.
Group One
- 🇲🇽 Austin Andrade (Mexico)
- 🇺🇸 Thomas Evans (USA)
- 🇿🇦 Jaco Schoonwinkel (South Africa)
- 🇬🇧 Tom Stoltman (UK)
- 🇦🇺 Eddie Williams (Australia)
This group centers around one man: Tom Stoltman. The three-time defending champion enters with a target on his back and little margin for error. However, his experience and consistency in big contests make him the clear frontrunner. Each event will be his to lose.
Historically, this group is balanced with rising talents and crowd favorites. South Africa’s Jaco Schoonwinkel made his WSM debut in 2023 and quickly gained respect for his composure and brute power. Meanwhile, Eddie Williams, also a known entertainer and singer, returns after a long absence, hoping to capitalize on renewed focus.
Now, eyes are also on Thomas Evans, who has climbed the American strongman ranks with speed. If he can keep pace in the medley and stone events, he may push Stoltman in the standings. Austin Andrade, Mexico’s top entrant, will look to gain international traction with a strong debut.
Group Two
- 🇨🇦 Wesley Derwinsky (Canada)
- 🇬🇧 Paddy Haynes (UK)
- 🇨🇦 Mitchell Hooper (Canada)
- 🇺🇸 Bryce Johnson (USA)
- 🇳🇿 Mathew Ragg (New Zealand)
At first glance, this may be the most competitive group. It features 2023 WSM winner Mitchell Hooper and 2023 finalist Mathew Ragg. Both are seasoned and explosive. But there’s little room for error in a field this tight.
Notably, Hooper has had one of the fastest ascents in strongman history. He debuted at WSM just a few years ago and won the title on his second try. Ragg, representing New Zealand, is known for his grip and conditioning, especially in medleys and carries. Together, they create a likely showdown.
Meanwhile, Derwinsky, Haynes, and Johnson aim to cause a shake-up. Johnson, a U.S. up-and-comer, has the raw power to surprise in the stone events. However, consistency will be key. If Hooper or Ragg falter early, the door will open fast.
Group Three
- 🇬🇧 Shane Flowers (UK)
- 🇺🇸 Lucas Hatton (USA)
- 🇵🇱 Mateusz Kieliszkowski (Poland)
- 🇬🇭 Evans Nana (Ghana)
- 🇿🇦 Rayno Nel (South Africa)
This group belongs to Mateusz Kieliszkowski — if his body holds up. The Polish powerhouse has returned after years of injury battles. Known for explosive speed and upper-body strength, he’s a favorite when healthy. But recent appearances have been limited.
Historically, Kieliszkowski has been a WSM silver medalist and a podium mainstay in Europe’s Strongest Man. However, injuries to his triceps and shoulders have derailed several comeback efforts. This year could mark either a resurgence or a final chapter.
For now, Evans Nana and Rayno Nel offer international firepower. Ghana’s Nana brings athleticism rarely seen in WSM, while Nel has made a name in Africa’s strongman scene. Hatton and Flowers must remain consistent across all five events to keep pace and force a Stone Off.
Group Four
- 🇨🇦 Maxime Boudreault (Canada)
- 🇨🇿 Ondra Fojtů (Czech Republic)
- 🇨🇦 Tristain Hoath (Canada)
- 🇺🇸 Trey Mitchell (USA)
- 🇬🇧 Luke Richardson (UK)
This is the most technically sound group. Trey Mitchell and Maxime Boudreault are known for grinding consistency and event discipline. Both men have podium-level potential, and both have reached the WSM final before. That makes this group difficult for anyone else to crack.
Historically, Mitchell has been a force in grip and static power events like the Deadlift and Hercules Hold. He placed fourth at the 2023 WSM and continues to improve. Meanwhile, Boudreault, also a WSM finalist, thrives in pressing and medley events. The battle between them could go to the final stone.
Still, it’s not just a two-man race. Luke Richardson returns after injury setbacks and looks fully recovered. Fojtů and Hoath, while less experienced, have both made recent strides in international competition. If one of the veterans stumbles, a breakout performance could emerge here.
Group Five
- 🇬🇧 Andrew Flynn (UK)
- 🇺🇸 Nick Guardione (USA)
- 🇺🇦 Pavlo Kordiyaka (Ukraine)
- 🇺🇸 Evan Singleton (USA)
- 🇬🇧 Luke Stoltman (UK)
Group Five is loaded with explosiveness. Evan Singleton and Pavlo Kordiyaka both favor fast-paced events. That makes this group one of the most entertaining to watch. It also increases the margin for error — a single mistake could shift the outcome.
Historically, Luke Stoltman has been the more consistent performer, reaching multiple WSM finals. He brings elite pressing power and experience under pressure. But he’s joined by Andrew Flynn, another Brit making his WSM debut, eager to prove he belongs.
Meanwhile, Nick Guardione adds American grit to the mix. He’s built a reputation on the Strongman Circuit for raw strength and attitude. With the right start, he could land in a Stone Off. However, Singleton and Kordiyaka are the ones to watch if they hit their stride early.
