The winners of the first and second rounds then face off in the final competition of the season. Whoever wins gets to pick who will advance to the final two with them. The houseguest who is not selected becomes the final member of the jury.
The results of the first two rounds are in. Which two houseguests will advance to the final competition of the summer? Read on to find out, but beware of spoilers.

The Final HoH Round 1 Results
Not surprisingly, Xavier won the first round of the final Head of Household. He’s proven himself to be a comp beast over the course of “Big Brother 23” with two HOHs and three veto wins on his resume. The jury members are also aware that he has strategically thrown competitions at times.
This means that Xavier will advance to the final competition of the summer. He’s pretty confident in his ability to beat Azah and Derek F. at just about anything. If he does win, he plans to take Derek F. to the final two. He’s certain to win if he ends up in the final two.
The Final HoH Round 2 Results
Azah won the second round of the final Head of Household competition. This means she and Xavier will compete for the power to choose who they’ll bring to the final two. Xavier has a good chance of beating Azah, but anything could happen. After all, she did beat him in the double eviction Head of Household competition.
As it stands now, Xavier’s plan is to take Derek F. to the final two. Azah is also likely to take Derek F. to the final two should she win. However, Big D is already feeling defeated. He feels like his fate is sealed since he didn’t win either of the final competitions and now he just has to wait around until finale night.
Derek F. Thinks He Carried Azah
Before Big D cast the sole vote to evict Kyland, he and Azah began fighting after being close friends all season. The tension began when Big D told Azah he felt like he’d carried her to this point in the game. She was understandably offended, especially because she has an HOH win whereas Big D has no competition wins on his resume.
Despite clearly not respecting Azah’s game, Derek F. told Azah he thinks he has a better chance of beating Xavier in the final two than he does beating her.
Derek to Azah- I look at this jury and I sit next to Azah, I lose. I sit next to X, I have got a fighting chance. That’s how I look at it #BB23
