Kelly Slater has just won his heat at around 11.30am local time this morning, in Mundaka Spain, which means that he has secured an incredible 9th World title!
Given the talent on the WCT at present it makes it an even more remarkable acheivement for a man who won his first title way back in 1992. After 17years on the tour Kelly was non-commital in his post heat interview as to his return to the tour next year to go for number ten, but he did say he was interested if someone was to put up the $10m prize for 10 titles which has been rumoured ( a fairly strong incentive!)
Congratulations Kelly

Proof again that you can actually make a good "Pro Career" out of surfing! Do what you love & love what you do. So is Kelly the "Tiger Woods" of Surfing or is Tiger the "Kelly Slater" of Golf? Ha, ha... >>> Cliff
