About the athlete

Michalyshen has been the epitome of consistency so far, with identical 20th place finishes at Tour Stop 1 and Tour Stop 2, resulting in her 20th overall placing in the season points leaderboard going into the Finals. This puts her at the last spot for a Pro Card. 

We did see her two best finishes of the season in Mesa, sixth place on Pro 4A with a massive clean of 265 pounds (notably, jerking the same amount of weight at Tour Stop 1 placed her 11th), and on Pro 6 with barbell cycling and muscle ups, taking eighth. 

Her only top-10 at the first Pro Stop came on Pro 5 with rope climbs and yoke carries. The strength is clearly there, and the upper body pulling is good. She should do well in the pool, a few top-tens and consistency everywhere else in the Final will keep her right in the top-20 mix.
