What is the ASP World Tour?
The ASP World Tour is the embodiment of the top tier of the ASP’s two-tier system. The World has both Men’s and Women’s Divisions. The Men’s Division is comprised of the top 45 competitive surfers in the world, and the women’s division is made up of the top 17. Surfers qualify for both the Men’s and Women’s ASP World Tours via the ASP World Qualifying Series (WQS). Every season, World Tour surfers compete with one another for prize money and the highly coveted ASP World Title. ASP World Tour events are held in exotic locations around the world with the support of the event licensees. Enjoying ten events per season for the men and seven for the women, prime locales and attractive prize purses, the ASP World Tour is the most sought after professional circuit in competitive surfing.
