SCOTTISH sensation Tom Stoltman defended his title to win the big one!

Novikov had surged ahead on day one and picked up wins in the deadlift, Flintstone barbell and the bus pull events going into the power stairs.

Stoltman was trailing by 3.5 points at this point but he outperformed Novikov by picking up nine points to the Ukrainian’s four heading into the Atlas Stones.

Former champ Novikov eventually finished in third after losing in a tiebreaker against American ace Martins Licis.

Following his stunning victory, Stoltman told USA Today: “To do it once is unbelievable. Back to back? Almost unheard of.”;
