THE SOUP BOWL definitely belongs to Chelsea Tuach.

Barbados’ best surfing talent copped yet another title in St Joseph, claiming her third consecutive World Surf League Sprite Soup Bowl Junior Pro over the weekend at the Independence Pro Classic.

It was the latest brilliant performance from Tuach, who put up a great finals showing to post a 15.00 heat total and down Hawaiians Brisa Hennessy and Dax McGill as well as American Maddie Peterson.

“It feels so great to win my last event here at home,” Tuach said.

“There was so much tough competition this year [as] the girls were making me work for it. Luckily, we had some waves for the final and I was able to snag two really good ones. I was actually pretty nervous for a while and didn’t think I would take it. . . (JM/PR)
