Caitlin Simmers, Italo Ferreira Storm Atop The Podium In Saquarema I The Catch Up Finals Day

Saquarema provided all the shakeups, dominant displays, and ultimately the churning the Brazilian Storm needed to kickstart their surge with Italo Ferreira and Caitlin Simmers claiming victories in front of thousands. Simmers' unmatched brilliance earned a first title defense, going back-to-back in Brazil, and clinched her spot into the Lexus WSL Finals. For Ferriera, his formidable form stole the show on Finals Day to claim his CT victory on Brazilian soil in front of tens of thousands of his compatriots and now sits at No. 4 on the rankings. Key runner-up finishes for Sawyer Lindblad and Yago Dora push them firmly into the World Title picture with just one event remaining. It all leads up to the ever-consequential Corona Fiji Pro beginning August 20 through 29 to see who makes it to the World Title showdown.
