Exactly nobody was surprised that Brody Malone is Men’s Champion USA 2022.

He’s a podium contender for world.

The BIG happy surprise is that Donnell Whittenburg got the 2nd automatic ticket to Worlds Liverpool. What a career comeback!

I follow Donnell every day on social media. Super happy that his persistence and attitude got him back to Worlds.

USA wanted to increase difficulty start score. A bonus system definitely helped Donnell.

These lads are headed to Liverpool!

Brody Malone and Donnell Whittenburg have automatically qualified to the US Team that will compete at the World Championships in October!
