Congrats Kelly ! - he is now both the oldest and youngest surfer to be world champion

It´s official now, Kelly Slater, 39, defeated brazillian surfers Gabriel Medina and Miguel Pupo to become world champion once again. Reaching the quarter finals proved to be enough for the veteran surfer to win the eleventh title of his long and glorious surfing career.

Some days ago, ASP committed an error by falsely declaring Kelly already world champion. However, it was just a question of time and yesterday the best surfer of all time was finally declared champion.

More to come in the next posts.
