NEW YORK, May 8 /PRNewswire/ — Dough will fly as 17 finalists from around the world compete for the title of “World’s Fastest Pizza Maker” and a $5,000 prize on Tuesday, May 8th at the MGM Grand Convention Center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

In Domino’s 21st competition, the best and fastest pizza makers hail from the United States, Korea, the United Kingdom, Canada and India.
