The TFX Invitational will host 36 men and 36 women from the North America West region to compete for qualifying spots to the 2025 CrossFit Games. The 36-athlete roster will be entirely fielded by performance in the CrossFit Open.
Unlike Syndicate Crown where 20 athletes are invited from the CrossFit Open and 10 more from the In-Affiliate Semifinals, the timing of the TFX Invitational makes that nearly impossible.
As such, TFX sent out invites to the top athletes yesterday. Those athletes have until Friday, April 4 at 11:59pm Central Time, to accept.
TFX will then begin the backfill process once the window to accept an invite has passed.
Here are the 36 men and 36 women who have been invited to compete at the TFX Invitational on May 16-18 in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.
