Alonso Correa finished ninth in Portugal and secured himself a spot in the top 50 of the QS

He will advance about 40 places in the ranking. In the round of XNUMX he was unable to beat the Italian Leo Fioravanti


Peruvian Alonso Correa has just finished ninth in the EDP Billabong Pro Ericeira, stage 50 of the QS tour, the third of the year at the highest level, distributing 10.000 points. With this result he earned 3700 points and brought his total to 7285, which will put him, when the ranking is updated, among the top 50 with mathematical chances of even making it into the CT if he achieves two solid results in the Hawaiian leg.

In the round of 15,33 he was unable to beat the Italian Leonardo Fioravanti who scored 9,73, much higher than Correa's XNUMX, who was unable to find the right hands with which he had combined powerful backside manoeuvres on all the previous days.

This is the best result of the Peruvian in the WSL in his entire career and confirms what has been the best result of his life, which included his first victory, in the QS 1000 of San Bartolo in March.

At the time of publication of this note the quarter-finals had been defined in Ericeira, as follows:
1: Deivid Silva vs Ryan Callinan
2: Ethan Ewing vs. Gabriel Medina
3: Kanoa Igarashi vs Leonardo Fioravanti
4: Tanner Hendrickson vs. Jake Marshall
