Gilmore has dominated the sport since her arrival on the scene.
Today, she is celebrated as one of the most decorated surfers, matched only by Layne Beachley for women’s World Titles. Gilmore’s most recent victory came in 2018.

There was only one difference: “I probably drank more tequila this time around!”
