The blond from Punta del Este who put his heart and soul into qualifying for the Lima 2019 Pan American Championship is at his best, surfing with strength, speed and serious maneuvers and this is giving him results.
Patán Olarte, who shared the lead with Lucas, was left in round 3, he could not beat Santiago Madrid and Julián Pérez and with that he gave up the lead.
