Who's Next?

Five-time Fittest Man on Earth Mat Fraser announced his retirement earlier this year. As we head into the 2021 CrossFit Games season, the question on everyone's mind is: Who's next? 

Which male athlete will be the first in five years to stand atop the Games podium? Only time will tell and it all starts with the 2021 NOBULL CrossFit Open, which starts March 11, at 5 p.m. PT, with the announcement of Open Workout 21.1.
