One of the newest events in the WSM competition, Fingal’s Fingers was first launched in 2000 and takes its name from Fingal, a mythological Gaelic hunter-warrior. The event revolves around a series of hinged poles – or fingers – being lifted, starting from a horizontal resting.
Martins Licis, pro-strongman and gym owner, is making his 4th appearance in the 2019 Tachi Palace World’s Strongest Man. His nickname “The Dragon” comes from the fire inside him. Originally from Latvia and representing the USA, Licis stands 6’3” and weighs 355lbs at the age 28. His best WSM finish was in 2017 and 2018 where he took 4th place.
In 2018, Licis was disappointed with his 4th place finish last year (2018). He wanted to be stand on the podium and just missed it for the second straight year. He also finished worse than his rival, Poland’s Mateusz Kieliszkowski, for the 1st time. During the 2018 Tachi Palace WSM trophy presentation with Kieliszkowski on the podium, Licis smiled despite how disappointed he was to finish behind his rival.
Martins Licis (USA) along with Mateusz Kieliszkowski (POL) have been called, “the future of Strongman” because of their tight battles in big competitions. With that, it has been called “the best rivalry in Strongman.”
