SURFING NEWS - The ISA World Surfing Games are set to return to the French town of Biarritz for the first time since the historic edition in 1980.
"I was really honored to get the invitation to be an Honorary Patron of the 2017 ISA World Surfing Games. I've spent a lot of time in Biarritz, so it means a lot to me. I have a lot of fond memories of my time in France. It gives me another reason to come back," explains Tom Curren.
Miguel Pupo, Wiggolly Dantas, Jeremy Flores, and Johanne Defay are some of the names that will represent their countries in the race for gold, silver, and bronze medals.
"The ISA World Surfing Games is an excellent platform to display the world-class waves and beauty of France's southwest coastline. We look forward to hosting the best surfers in the world and potentially the sport's first ever Olympians at what will be a wonderful festival of surfing," says Fernando Aguerre, president of the International Surfing Association.
The Olympic Channel will live stream the 2017 ISA World Surfing Games from May 20-28, in Biarritz, France.
