Once again, it’s time to find the strongest man on the face of the earth. The 45th annual World’s Strongest Man (WSM) will be running from Tuesday, May 24 through Sunday, May 29, with a one-day break between the Qualifying Stage and the Finals. The biggest event in strength sports is being held at the Capitol Mall in Sacramento, CA.

Breaking Muscle will be consistently updating this results page to keep you on top of all the action throughout this year’s contest. There is no livestream of the event. However, WSM is offering a post-show featuring daily results and interviews with athletes, hosted by former WSM competitor Terry Hollands.

Editor’s Note: Results are from our official reporter in attendance. These results should not be considered final until after the World’s Strongest Man Facebook Live show: Backstage Live! Presented by The Beard Struggle, which airs daily throughout the competition, beginning May 24 at 3 p.m. ET.

2022 WSM Competitor Withdrawals

While 30 men qualified to enter this year’s WSM, unexpected scenarios can occur. Here’s a list of the competitors who have withdrawn from the contest.

How Strongman is Scored

Scoring points in competitive strongman events relates to the overall field of competitors. First place can earn as many points as there are competitors, and points descend accordingly.

In the Qualifying stage, you can earn a maximum of six points because there are six athletes in each group. First place gets six points; second gets five, and so on. In the Finals, there will be 10 competitors in total, so first place earns 10 points; second gets nine; third gets eight; and so on.

In the event of any tied scores, points are split evenly. If two athletes tie for second, you would add up the second and third place points and divide by two. For example, in the WSM Finals, if two athletes tie for second place, they would each earn 8.5 points (nine plus eight divided by two).
