Erostarbe secured his spot in the CT 2026
The results I needed came through; Herdy and Alyssa Spencer were also secured; now there's one spot left for men and one for women.
Basque surfer Nadia Erostarbe will be back on the CT this year with a full season and the right to compete in all stages, the WSL officially announced after the necessary results were obtained.
Sitting in fifth position, Erostarbe fell out of contention early and had to watch from the sidelines. She needed a combination of results that was difficult to achieve in order to not qualify, but mathematically possible.
Mateus Herdy and Alyssa Spencer have also been guaranteed spots, and now there are two places left, one for a man and one for a woman.
Levi Slawson, in competition, and Liam O'Brien, watching from the outside, are fighting for the male spot, and Anat Lelior, out of competition, Sophie McCulloch (AUS), Ellie Harrison (AUS), and Sanoa Dempfle-Olin (these three in competition) are fighting for the female spot.
