In the fight for the World Title of the season, Medina advances in France and follows behind John John

 
 
 HOSSEGOR, FRANÇA - Brazil started well the ninth and antepenultimate stage of the World Circuit of Surfing. Yesterday, in Hossegor, France, five Brazilian athletes won their first heats and advanced to the Round 3. Among them are the last two world champions: Adriano de Souza, Mineirinho, and Gabriel Medina.

Second place in the ranking with 37,450 points, Medina tries to overcome  in this stage the Hawaiian John John Florence, who has 41,650. For this, the 2014  World Champion has to win in Hossegor, and hopes that the rival arrives at most  to the Quarterfinals.

The Hawaiian also overcame his first challenge by winning the sixth heat against the American Conner Coffin and the French Joan Duru. If  stops in the Semifinals in France, Medina only conquer the leadership of the World Circuit of Surfing if  the Hawaiian does not surpass the next heat that will compete.

The last surfer of the country that entered  the water, Adriano  de Souza scored 14 points  and, with very tranquility, overcame the Tahitian Michel Bourez and the Australian Adam Melling. Besides Mineirinho, are in the Round 3, the Brazilians Miguel Pupo, Ítalo Ferreira and Caio Ibelli.

By the way Filipe Toledo, Alejo Muniz, Jadson André and Alex Ribeiro went to the recap(Round 2), to be held today if the waves support in Hossegor.
