In 'America's Next Top Model' cycle 3, who won the competition?

Eva Pigford won cycle 3 of 'America's Next Top Model'. The season aired in 2004 and ended with Pigford defeating Yaya DaCosta in the final.

Pigford, who later became known as Eva Marcille, received the cycle's modeling prize package and gained wider recognition through the program. The competition included photo shoots, runway assignments and judging panels.

Yaya DaCosta was the runner-up, while Amanda Swafford and Ann Markley were among the other contestants. The cycle was filmed in New York City and included international travel to Jamaica.

The show used the term 'cycle' rather than 'season' for much of its run. That wording is part of the program's branding, although many viewers use the more general word season when discussing its winners.
