The Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach surfing event wrapped up on Sunday with maiden victories to Tyler Wright of Australia and Felipe Toledo of Brazil.

Both surfers had come close before, Wright achieving two seconds and two third placings since 2011 and Toledo a second placing in 2019, but despite their consistently high rankings, the great bell trophy had eluded them.
