Ron Quinonez
Janet Layug scored the biggest victory of her career to achieve first runner up at the recent Arnold Classic Australia Bikini competition!
Janet Layug is a Polish-Filipino model and a Hooters Girl. A native of Lakeland, Florida, and University of Florida graduate, Layug has worked with the Hooters brand for over seven years, most recently at her hometown store, Hooters of North Lakeland, Florida.

Congratulations to India Paulino for making history for being the first ever Bikini competitor to win both the Arnold Ohio and Arnold Australia in the same calendar year. Second runner up Justine Munro was expected to make her Arnold Australia debut.

Last year at the Arnold Ohio Justine was able to place 2nd just behind Ashley Kaltwasser who couldn’t make it to Australia, and in front of Janet Layug who placed 3rd at that contest. This sets up another great battle between the two, and with the excitement of a number of other top competitors for the title.
