After a morning of great surf, the women's final was marred by a major 25-minute lull in conditions with Moore lucky to catch an early wave which ended up delivering her the win around 30 minutes later. Moore scored a massive 9.57 on her first wave while Wright could only find a couple of tiny waves and scores (3.67 and 2.50) which left her 5.91 points in arrears. Just five minutes from the finish of the heat Wright finally caught a wave but it could not deliver her the score required as Moore added a second score of 5.83 which gave her the win.
