Current leader of the European Junior Qualifying Series and winner of the inaugural event of 2016 in Caparica, Teresa Bonvalot (PRT), 16, successfully launched her Biscarrosse campaign and claimed her ticket for Round 3.
"It's always good to start with a win especially when you're in the first heat and you don't really know what the conditions are like," she said. "Waves are tricky so you just have to try your best and not miss opportunities. I'm happy to be here and hopefully I can make a few more heats."
