The Rogue Invitational’s online qualifier, The Q, closed last night at 8:00 pm Monday night. Athletes looking to qualify for the in-person competition in Aberdeen, Scotland, this year completed four workouts over the weekend. The top five men and women from the online qualifier are guaranteed to receive an invite to the Rogue Invitational. Those outside the top 5 could receive an invite, but it is up to the discretion of the Rogue Invitational team.
As of this morning, the leaderboard is closed and frozen while the team conducts its video review process. The Rogue Invitational video review is one of the most strict in the competitive landscape with athletes being required to weigh all of their equipment in addition to the standard video submission standards.
Many athletes have received adjusted scores or even had their score zeroed out over the years during the video review process. Travis Mayer, Scott Tetlow, Andrea Solberg and Ro Scott were among those who received scoring adjustments in 2022. Last year Bill Leahy, Aniol Ekai, Giorgos Karavis and Sydney Michalyshen were several of the notable names to get bumped down the leaderboard following the video review.
So with that, here is the current leaderboard…pending video review.

In total, 57 men submitted at least one score with 52 submitting all four scores. Only 43 women submitted at least one score. Of those, 41 have a score for all four workouts.
In addition to receiving an invite to compete at the 2024 Rogue Invitational, the top men’s and women’s finisher in The Q will also receive a custom barbell from Rogue Fitness.
