Winning 14.83 points to nine, 28-year-old South American dominated the final posting an 8-point ride on her last wave while Ado struggled to find the form she鈥檇 shown throughout the 5star World Qualifying Series.

"It鈥檚 a great feeling when you win and I am so happy to win this event," said Silva during the winner鈥檚 presentation. "It was a really hard event, because the waves were quite small the entire time, so I had to be really patient to get the best waves."

Silva placed 9th and 5th in the first two ASP Women鈥檚 World Tour events this season and hopes to take this momentum into Stop Three in Brazil.

"The break we鈥檝e had on Tour during the past few months has been good, because I鈥檝e had some spare time to spend with my family and friends," said Silva. "When I get the chance to do that, I feel good and relaxed, so I think this helped me a lot."

For Ado, the World Qualifying Series is not a major focus in her career yet, but the 16-year-old was obviously ecstatic to place second overall and outclass many of her more experienced rivals.

"This is a really huge result for me," said Ado. "I didn鈥檛 come here to get a result, I just came here to learn, so this result is just unbelievable."

"I didn鈥檛 surf my best in the final, but the waves were really hard and Jacqueline surfed really smart and got the best waves in the final."

The former ISA World Junior Champion鈥檚 road to the final was no easy task, having to defeat current ASP World No. 10 Megan Abubo, from Hawaii, in the semi-finals and former ASP World Tour competitor American Julia Christian in the quarter-finals before that.

"It鈥檚 always hard when you鈥檙e against these really good surfers, but I didn鈥檛 really have any pressure on me," said Ado. "For me, it鈥檚 just about catching the best waves and surfing the best I can."

Her semi-final heat was a low-scoring affair, but Ado鈥檚 two-wave combined score of 10.34 points was enough to hold off Abubo in second. The Hawaiian veteran had a last minute chance to knock Ado out of first when she paddled into a solid set wave, but fell off the wave on the first turn and missed her opportunity.

"I blew it, I just totally blew it," said Abubo after the heat. "I thought I鈥檇 just go for a really big turn at the start of the wave, because I knew it wasn鈥檛 going to be a really long wall, but I just overdid it and blew it, and I am absolutely regretting that now. It鈥檚 okay though, because you don鈥檛 win big heats being safe."

"I came here to win, but while that didn鈥檛 happen, I鈥檓 definitely happy to get a result," continued Abubo. "I鈥檓 also happy to get some momentum during the long break in the ASP World Tour season and I鈥檓 using this as a tool to get ready for the World Tour event in Brazil next week."

The 29-year-old is 13 years older than 16-year-old Ado and was quick to sing the teenager鈥檚 praises after the matchup.

"She鈥檚 super talented," said Abubo. "To make the final here with the talent pool we had in this event is a pretty big accomplishment and she鈥檚 a great representation for European surfing."

Silva was ranked second on the WQS ratings coming into the Rip Curl Boardmasters, but with the win now moves ahead of Australian Jessi Miley-Dyer into the number one.

Miley-Dyer, the 2006 ASP World Tour Rookie of the Year, was defeated by fellow Australian Laurina McGrath in the quarter-finals at Fistral.

"I am really happy with this third place resultoverall," said McGrath. "I鈥檝e been struggling through the middle part of the year, so that鈥檚 definitely a confidence booster going into our next event in Brazil."

"The competition is always tough at this level. Jacqueline is surfing really well and she鈥檚 always so consistent, so when she got those two 7.00-point rides it was hard to play catch-up. I nearly got it, but just didn鈥檛 have to enough to get the win."
