Thomas 'Tom' Evans (born 9 May 1994) is an American Strongman from Franklin, North Carolina. [1] [2]

Evans worked as an athletics assistant strength and conditioning coach at the University of Delaware [3] and was also an American Football player before trying out for 2021 America's Strongest Man. The following year, within a span of 6 months, he won both the 2022 Arnold Amateur [4] and the Shaw Classic Open which paved the way for him to attend other high level international competitions.

Evans has qualified for the World's Strongest Man competition on three occasions (2023, 2024, 2025) but has yet to reach the finals. He secured fifth place at the 2023 Arnold Strongman Classic, sixth at the 2023 Strongest Man on Earth and sixth at the 2024 Rogue Invitational. [5] His best performance was at 2025 Strongest Man on Earth where he won third place behind Evan Singleton and Lucas Hatton. [6]
