Valerie Waugaman out of the Figure International!
Take a trip over to the Arnold Classic web site and you will see Valerie Waugaman’s name is no longer on the Figure International list. It’s been confirmed that Valerie Waugaman is in fact out of this year’s show. The details behind her withdrawal from the show have not been confirmed as of yet. Once we have a chance to confirm with Val on her condition and reasons for withdrawing, we’ll report back.
Many considered Valerie a favorite for the Figure National title and most definitely a lock for a top 6 spot.
Stay tuned.
I won’t confirm this, but I’m thinking it has something to do with AG’s second season taping. At least that’s what’s been said. That would be a good reason, as it would be hard to get into contest shape and get ready for AG at the same time.
It will be interesting to see who steps up in figure now with some big names (Jenny Lynn, Amanda Savell, Mary Lado, Christine Pomponio-Pate) out for different reasons.
Will there be additions since there are dropouts?
