Worlds Strongest Man 2010 Line Up Announced

12th August 2010 - Posted by Rob The line up for the forthcoming Worlds Strongest Man 2010 competition has been announced, with a number of notable absentees. Former champions Mariuz Pudzianowski and Phil Pfister are not in the 30 competitors, with the reasons currently unknown.

The UK boasts a strong contingent as usual, with Hollands, Shahlaei, Felix, Westaby and Sadler all making the trip to South Africa. Reigning Britain's Strongest Man Jimmy Marku will not be competing presumably due to the biceps tear he suffered earlier this summer (although Terry Hollands has managed to recover in the same period).

Rob Frampton has been selected as one of the reserves, so potentially there may be upto six British competitors taking part. View the full article to see the line up.
