Patience paid off and all-time conditions closed out the 2025 Corona Cero Open J-Bay with Connor O'Leary and Gabriela Bryan taking wins for the history books.
O'Leary's first-ever CT win adds his name to the short, illustrious list of goofyfooters to do so at J-Bay along with Bryan notching a momentous third CT win in 2025 out of four Final appearances. Pumping J-Bay stole the show to leave fans wanting more and closed out proceedings with a 10-point ride, all the dramatics and excellent showings, and sent the world's best out of South Africa with some incredible memories. Now, the World Title races heads for the ultimate challenge of Teahupo'o at the Lexus Tahiti Pro Presented by I-SEA starting August 7 through 16.
