dimanche 30 décembre 2007Christophe Guigueno

For the first time in the ASP World tour, a rookie has won the championship. Stephanie Gilmore, 19 yo, wins the 2007 ranking ahead of Peruvian Sofia Mulanovich and Silvana Lima from Brazil.

This year, Stephanie Gilmore has won 4 of the 8 events of the circuit. She has won the Rip Curl Pro, the famous Bells Beach, the NAB Beachley Classic in Sydney, the Mancora Peru Classic and the Billabong Girls Pro in Hawaii.

She has won more than 86000 dollars this year, enough to double a total of gains from the time she entered in the professional circuit. We can be sure we will see again Stephanie Gilmore in 2008 as one big pretender to succeed to heurself. But for the month of december, she is the SeaSailSurfeur of the month.
