Executive Summary¶

The analysis showcases irregularities in the results for the 2018 The Fittest Experience (TFX) Online Qualifier held in October 2017. The leaderboard results are hosted and assessed by a third-part company, FloElite.

The details in this analysis showcase that a large percentage of athlete's ranks are not consistent within the expectations and rules of the TFX competition. The most significant finding is for the Women's Pro/Amature Division, where Amanda Garces may have been excluded from the Women's Pro Division due to inconsistencies in the rankings of other athletes in Events 1, 2 and 3. This and other findings have implications about whether additional athletes received invitations for the correct division or received invitations at all for the TFX competition in January 2018.

The hope is for this analysis to demonstrate the need for oversight and verification of the competition results. I call to action both TFX and FloElite to review these findings and assess internal processes to provide confidence and integrity in the results for the TFX competition in January and beyond.
