1. Tom Stoltman (Scotland): 26.5 points
2. Mitchel Hooper (Canada): 23.5 points
3. Evan Singleton (United States): 23 points
4. Austin Andrade (Mexico): 18.5 points
5. Wesley Derwinsky (Canada): 16 points
6. Mathew Ragg (Canada): 12.5 points

Stoltman, a two-time World’s Strongest Man winner (2021, 2022), leads a group of 10 vying to be the best. On Saturday, the competitors took part in three events: Knaack Giant’s Medley, Max Axle and Keg Toss in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
The first-place winner got 10 points for winning an event, followed by nine points for second place, eight points for third, and so on until one point for last.
The only caveat was in events where one needed to do reps to complete a task. For example, any competitors unable to get a rep in the Max Axle or Keg Toss got zero points.
Stoltman, who has also carded second-place finishes in 2020 and 2023, tied Hooper (the 2023 champion) for first in the Max Axle with four reps. Stoltman, Hooper and Wesley Derwinsky also tied for first in the Keg Toss with five reps.
Singleton won the Knaack Giant’s Medley with a time of 30.21 seconds. Austin Andrade finished second (40.61 seconds) and Stoltman took third (41.26 seconds).
Sunday, the competitors will take part in the Reign Total Body Fuel Conan’s Wheel, the BFGoodrich Tires HD Terrain Deadlift and the Atlas Stones to determine the victor.
