    People seem to be throwing a lot of doubt on Tom, considering his most recent results are defending his Britain's title, finishing 3rd at the Arnold's, and taking his world's title back from Mitch. He seems like he's focused on trying to win everything he shows up to this year

      The doubt is from history. He used to use giants live as only training and chance to meet the fans. Now he's focused on the big four, and seems to be more open to really going all out on the other shows. Excited to see it, but not everyone is the same on how they can hold strength.

    This one is so tough to call because guys are probably peaking for SMOE, so we don’t know how much they put into these events, but there’s enough overlap that I think it’s impossible to look past Tom and Mitch for top 2. 3rd will be Evan or Ragg. I have to give it to Tom for the exact reason you said, he needs to be done by at least 2pts to even have the opportunity to lose
