In an unfortunate turn of events, Roelly Winklarr has tested positive for COVID19 causing him to miss the 2020 Mr. Olympia.
The news of Roelly missing the 2020 Mr. Olympia was first reported by Dave Polumbo of RX Muscle. Since the news broke, the 2018 People’s Champion took to his Instagram account to confirm the withdrawl.
I have tested positive for Covid-19 while in Turkey en route to the US. We have tried everything we possibly could but being Covid-19 positive there is really nothing else we can do. In the meantime some Covid-19 symptoms have presented and my focus is now on a full recovery. Even though the news already broke out it is only fair that I inform you all personally of this unexpected turn of events.
Roelly joins Flex Lewis as two big name stars in the star-studded field who will have to miss the rescheduled 2020 Mr. Olympia.
We send our best wishes and full recovery to Roelly.

Final Takeaway
This is a packed field, honestly. If you look at Brandon Curry defending his crown, Phil Heath coming back for #8, Dexter Jackson for one last swan song and the plethora of young talent coming for the top like Hunter Labrada, you still got yourself a great storyline and hopefully a great show. We just feel for Roelly after putting in all this work only to hit a massive roadblock right at the end of the road.
