Surfing: Silvana Lima Dominates Third Round at Roxy Pro Gold Coast

Silvana Lima took the top score at the third round of the Roxy Pro Gold Coast surfing competition in Australia.

The two-time ASP Women’s World Runner-Up (2008, 2009) from Brazil secured the day’s highest heat total, a 15.27 out of a possible 20, during her Round 3 bout against Pauline Ado (FRA), 20, and Sofia Mulanovich (PER), 27.

“The conditions are really hard and I knew I had to hassle. I felt confused about the waves, some were fat and I didn’t know which ones to choose. I didn’t want to lose, I feel like I always have to win. I got a few at the end, so I’m happy to get through.”

Event organizers will reconvene on Tuesday 8th March at 6:30am Queensland time to assess conditions for a possible 7:30am start.
