March 30 (Reuters) – Surfing’s professional world tour, now in its 50th year, resumes at Australia’s hallowed Bells Beach this week, the first event on a 12-stop tour through nine countries that culminates at Hawaii’s Banzai Pipeline in December.
Stops one-nine will feature the full field of 36 men and 24 women. The field will narrow to 24 men and 16 women for stops 10 and 11, which will determine the World Title contenders.
