After suffering through the worst start of his pro career, 9x world champion Kelly Slater is back. He took out local favorite Adriano de Souza in the final of the WCT event in Brazil today and moved from 25th to 9th place in the ASP ratings. The win is the 41st of his pro career and gives him momentum heading into the next event at Jeffrey’s Bay in South Africa, which he won last year.

Congratulations, Kelly!
