Antiguan IFBB Pro Bikini Fitness athlete and ambassador Melissa Seaforth has captured the Masters Bikini title at the IFBB Pro Masters World Championships in Malta, adding another major win to her 2025 season.

Seaforth, who recently earned gold in the Bikini Pro Masters Division and silver in the Bikini Pro Open Division at the IFBB Pro Grand Gala in Italy, said the victory was deeply emotional and a defining moment in her nine-year career. “To capture a World Championship title at the Masters level is indeed an honour,” she said. “It’s not just historical for Antigua and Barbuda but a very pivotal milestone in my professional bodybuilding career.”

She finished ahead of Russia’s Anna Prokhorova and Spain’s Anna Kushkian. Poland’s Marta Piatjas placed fourth, with Spain’s Jasmin Ecker fifth.

Seaforth will next compete at the IFBB Pro Bikini Fitness World Championships in Spain this weekend, marking her sixth consecutive appearance at the event. She also earned bronze at the IFBB Grand Prix PEPA PRO in the Czech Republic on October 25 and is considered a strong contender for Antigua and Barbuda’s Sportswoman of the Year.
