Format

The event features the top five surfers from both the men's and women's regular season standings, and consists of four head-to-head matches, held on a single day. In the first match, the surfers ranked fourth and fifth go head-to-head, with the winner advancing to take on the third-ranked surfer in the second match. The winner of the second match then takes on the second-ranked surfer in the third match, with the winner qualifying for the title match against the top-ranked surfer in the standings. [6]

Format Updates

If the No. 1 seed wins the first heat of the best-of-three World Title match, they will clinch the World Title without needing to surf a second or third heat. [7]
