A source close to the negotiations has told IronMind® that at this moment, there are no contracts in effect for a 2009 World's Strongest Man qualifying tour.

Notably, the agreement between IMG and Super Series that has allowed athletes to qualify for the 2005, 2007, and 2008 MET-Rx World's Strongest Man contest expires this year, and at this point, IronMind® was told that the contract has not been extended.

IronMind® will try to follow related developments, but for now, here's the bottom line: There are no agreements between IMG and any parties in terms of qualifying competitors for the 2009 World's Strongest Man contest.
