Medina's glory didn't last long: In very next round, he was defeated by fellow Brazilian Adriano de Souza.

Heavy matchups unfolded for the women, too. Four of the top surfers on the Championship Tour (CT) battled hard in the Semis, but the Final was left to two of the CT's winningest women: six-time, reigning World Champ Stephanie Gilmore (AUS) and two-time Champion
Carissa Moore (HAW). Not only was Moore the defending event winner, but she was coming off a win on the Gold Coast that proved to set a winning streak in motion.
