Lakey Peterson defeated Hawaii’s Carissa Moore 13.23 to 11.50 in the semifinal of the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal on Saturday and it threw a wrench into Moore’s attempt to clinch the World Surf League championship early.

At No. 1 in the WSL rankings, Moore can still attain her fourth world title at the tour’s final stop, the Hawaii Pro at Maui’s Honolua Bay (Nov. 25 to Dec. 6). Peterson is No. 2 and very much in contention for the 2019 overall championship.

Caroline Marks, ranked No. 3 and also in contention for the big prize, went on to win the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal in the final against Peterson, 13.73 to 6.27.

Brazil’s Italo Ferreira captured the MEO Rip Curl Pro Portugal men’s title, topping South Africa’s Jordy Smith in the final, 18.43 to 6.17.

Five men’s surfers — No. 1 Ferreira, fellow Brazilians Gabriel Medina (No. 2) and Filipe Toledo (No. 4), Smith (No. 3), and Kolohe Andino (No. 5) of San Clemente, Calif. — are in the chase for the world crown that will be decided at the tour finale, the Billabong Pipe Masters at Ehukai Beach, Dec. 8-20.
