CT qualification is heating up and the Ballito Pro Presented by O'Neill is in the history books with Nadia Erostarbe and Luke Thompson earning massive victories.
Thompson's first Challenger Series victory set his home country supporters in Ballito into a frenzy, becoming the first South African to do so since 2017, after besting George Pittar on his final attempt in the dying minutes. For Erostarbe, a maiden Challenger Series win over Yolanda Hopkins staked her claim as a CT qualification threat for a second-straight season as she looks to get the job done in 2025. Amazing moments from start to finish highlighted the 2025 edition of the Ballito Pro and the race toward joining the world's best is just getting started.
