and all have an opportunity to win their first medal in this young Olympic sport.

 

could also win the first European medal in this sport (North America, South America, Africa, Asia and Oceania all already have medals, Europe is the only continent to have yet to medal)

The wave conditions were very bad for the women's quarterfinals, but we've made it through the day.

 

The semis and the finals are scheduled to be Saturday.

That semi feels almost like a final to me. Normally (as in if this was a random venue) out of those fours I would say Marks is the favourite, but of the remaining athletes Weston-Webb and Hennessy seem to be the best suited for Teahupoʻo.

No surfing today.

 

Does anyone knows what happens if they aren't able to complete the competition? Tomorrow is the last day of the waiting period.

Not sure where exactly I saw it, but I read somewhere that the remainder of the event will be completed on Monday.
