Your United States Strongman is proud to bring you the USS Pro Women's Worlds on October 28th and 29th in Louisville, KY. Once again our friend Robby McCann will be promoting with the full support of the US Strongman 4 Horsemen!
The USS Pro Women's Worlds will start on Friday night with 3 events and finish up Saturday afternoon with 2 more. The contest will be in conjunction with the Kentucky Muscle NPC event which averages 10,000 fans per day. The event will also feature an amateur strongman contest on Saturday morning.
"We are very excited about this event," said USS Strongman President Willie Wessels. "We have worked hard to bring opportunities to all strongman competitors. The women's segment of the sport is the fastest growing and we want to recognize their accomplishments."
Four contests were selected from coast to coast to ensure maximum opportunities for strongwomen from all over the coutry to qualify. There have been two USS Pro Women's Worlds qualfiers already with two more scheduled. Top athletes from USS Nationals will also qualify. International athletes may qualify through their governing bodies and contact the USS Home office for details. INTERNATIONAL INQUIRIES.

US Strongman Athlete Advocate, Mike Johnston, commented, "This event, these contests are a celebration of the beauty of the female form. The powerful, strong, bad-ass female athlete. The pro status is about money. There will be cash awards for the ladies. We aren't creating a new "pro class" and saying okay now you are a pro strongwoman, good luck! The athletes will be welcome to return to any USS event and compete as before, and of course, they will get the opportunity to qualify and compete at another "pro event!"
