The seven-time world champion registered a record 33rd WSL victory by defeating American Lakey Peterson in El Salvador final with a 7.33 ride
Seven-time world champion Stephanie Gilmore has won the WSL’s El Salvador Pro, registering her 33rd victory to break her own record for most women’s wins on the Championship Tour.
“Muchas gracias El Salvador, this is amazing,” Gilmore said. “Once I got past Caroline, I was super confident and I knew I could do it. Lakey is an amazing surfer, so I knew it was going to be a tough final but it doesn’t get any better. I love doing this. I love winning, I love this sport. In the 40-minute women’s final, Gilmore had just 1.03 to her name with 11 minutes remaining. Peterson had compiled a two-wave total of 9.67 by that stage, but Gilmore pulled out the goods when she needed it most.
