The MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal pushed the world's best to the test, and Yago Dora and Caroline Marks emerged victorious. Battling through every and all conditions, Dora and Marks surmounted the field for their first wins of the 2025 CT season. Marks' Semifinal bout with Molly Picklum set up a Final bout with rising powerhouse Gabriela Bryan to seal her second CT win in Portugal. For Dora, a full display of airs and Supertubos dreamers led to his statement-making victory over an in-form No. 1 Italo Ferreira. The CT now packs its bags to shift gears from the Old Country to the tropical paradise of El Salvador for the Surf City El Salvador Pro presented by Corona beginning April 2 through 12.
