Kelly Slater Hints at Retirement After Missing World Tour Cut

Surfing legend Kelly Slater contemplates ending his illustrious career following a pivotal tournament loss in Western Australia.

Kelly Slater, an 11-time world champion, may have competed in his last professional surfing event after failing to make the mid-season cut at the Margaret River Pro.
The 52-year-old surfer, known for redefining professional surfing, hinted at retirement but left open the possibility of competing in Fiji in August with a wildcard entry.
Slater's career, spanning over three decades, includes unprecedented achievements such as being the youngest and oldest men’s world champion.
Throughout his career, Slater has battled injuries and admitted that his motivation has not matched the demands of current competitive surfing.
Despite the emotional end at Margaret River, Slater remains optimistic about the future, viewing it as the start of a new chapter in his life.
