SURF:Aussie falls short in El Salvador surfing final

Carissa Moore Tyler Wright Leo Fioravanti Australia

Tyler Wright has fallen just short in her battle against another former world surfing champion in Carissa Moore, with the veterans duelling in the final of the El Salvador Pro.

Australia's Wright was hunting her first World Surf League title since February 2025 but the Hawaiian logged back-to-back wins after also taking out the New Zealand Pro.

Leo Fioravanti became the first Italian to win a men's Championship Tour event, upsetting Brazil's rankings leader Italo Ferreira in the final, 15.33 to 10.90.

Five-time world champion Moore is making her return to the Championship Tour in 2026, taking two years off and having a baby daughter.

"Before we paddled out we were in the locker room and I was like 'Tyler, this is like the old days, this is awesome'," said 33-year-old Moore, with the pair first squaring off back in 2011.
