What seemed to be setting up for a massive day at the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal Presented by Corona Cero turned to the Atlantic Ocean's fury. A next generation clash witnessed a massive upset from 2025 CT rookie Erin Brooks over World No. 1 alongside a third-straight Finals Day appearance from Molly Picklum. With men's Round of 32 action came the storm and Jack Robinson navigated his way through two meaty barrels to post a 15.67 heat total alongside grindy performances from Liam O'Brien and Yago Dora before conditions turned for the worst. The fields continue to dwindle and the anticipation rises for the next day of competition to see who locks in for Finals Day.
