Rip Curl Pro Round 3 ON at Backup Site of Belgas
Brett Simpson (USA), 25, 2010 ASP Dream Tour rookie, will face Jadson Andre (BRA), 20, in Round 3 of the Rip Curl Pro Portugal.
BELGAS, Peniche/Portugal (Tuesday, October 12, 2010) – Round 3 of the Rip Curl Pro Portugal has been called on in punchy two-to-three foot (1 metre) waves at the backup site of Belgas.
Event No. 8 of 10 on the 2010 ASP World Tour, the Rip Curl Pro Portugal completed Rounds 1 and 2 at the primary site of Supertubos, but prevailing offshore winds at the backup site of Belgas have forced today’s relocation.
“We’ve assessed conditions throughout the morning as well as consulted the swell forecasts and we’ve decided to commence Round 3 at 12:30pm at Belgas,” Rich Porta, ASP International Head Judge, said. “We will monitor conditions throughout the afternoon to ensure we send the surfers out in the best possible surf.”
Up first this afternoon will be current ASP World No. 4 Taj Burrow (AUS), 32, against Matt Wilkinson (AUS), 22, in the opening heat of Round 3.
