Fans and surfers alike waited and were treated to a Corona Cero Open J-Bay Finals Day for the ages with Connor O'Leary and Gabriela Bryan claiming memorable wins.
Bryan's absurd form in 2025 is palpable as she earned her third win of 2025 and kept the gap between her and World No. 1 Molly Picklum close after their dramatic Final showdown. O'Leary humbly added his name to the shortlist of goofy footers to stake his claim at J-Bay's perfect lineup, posting a 10-point in the process, for his first-ever CT victory over new No. 1 Yago Dora. Plus, …Lost Surfboards' ridiculous lead keeps growing as the door is shut on the 2025 Vissla CT Shaper Rankings. The World Title race is tightening every new heat and only one event remains to etch contenders' name into the Lexus WSL Final 5 Fiji. But first, they have to overcome one of surfing's ultimate proving grounds of Teahupo'o and send themselves over the ledge at the Lexus Tahiti Pro Presented by I-SEA. The end begins August 7 through 16 and you won't want to miss a second of the action.
