INCHING CLOSER

Brett Simpson finishes third at the RioSurf Pro International. Qualification imminent.

While we're not opening the champagne yet, we're definitely putting it on ice. Hurley's Brett Simpson slogged through some challenging conditions at Rio's Arpoador Beach this past weekend. But when the spray settled after tight heat with winner Simao Romao, he walked away with a third-place finish and a valuable 1875 points in his quest for qualification.

That replaced Brett's 1100-point low and catapulted him back up to sixth in the overall ASP World Qualifying Series ratings. ASP tour manager Al Hunt wouldn't concede that Simpson is a lock just yet, but let's just say he can breathe a little easier now. Brett's flying back home today, but this is what he told the ASP after his heat: “Ahh of course, I’m still stoked, third place is a good result for me. He (Simao Romao) won here last year, and definitely this is his place, he is surfing amazing, so congratulations to him. I didn’t get a good result at Guaruja last week so it was great to come here and make the semis. We finally had a day of sun and fun waves. That’s how I like to think of Brazil, and today we certainly had the best waves of the entire event.”

Four more six-stars left. We're hoping to open the champagne before Hawaii.

Go, Brett.
