SYDNEY SURF PRO WINNERS

Due to the rapidly evolving situation with COVID-19, the WSL announced yesterday to cancel all events yet to commence at all Tour levels.
And with that, the Sydney Surf Pro wrapped yesterday with 4-time World Champ Carissa Moore and Italy's Leo Fiorivanti taking the wins.
In a buzzer-beater against 2-time World Champ Tyler Wright, Moore earned her third career victory at Manly.
And in another buzzer-beater win, Fioravanti edged out Matt Banting, laying down his second scoring air reverse in the waning moments of the Final.
Stay tuned here for updates on when and where WSL competition will resume.

In light of the WSL's decision to postpone all events through March for the safety of athletes, staff and fans, the planet's top surfers are reacting.
Two-time World Champ John John Florence took to Instagram to say...
"Bummed we won't get to see everyone at Snapper this year but thank you to the WSL for taking this situation seriously."
To all the surfers that have spoken up, thank you for your understanding and adding your voice to this important conversation.
