(Wednesday, June 23, 2009) - Blake Thornton, the 24-year-old from
Maroubra, Sydney, surfed the perfect Final in epic Cape Town
conditions to knock out local favourite Royden Bryson, and take
victory at the Association of Surfing Professionals (ASP) World
Qualifying Series (WQS) 4-Star O’Neill Cold Water Classic South
Africa. “I am so excited to win this,” Thornton said. “Royden fell
on his wave at the end. I think maybe the cold was getting to us. I
am sorry for him, but so glad I won.”
