Tyler Wright
Culburra, New South Wales, AustraliaAt 14 years old, she became the youngest surfer to win a WCT event, ever. At 15, she made the World Tour. By 17, she was fighting for her first World Title. At 21 years of age she was taking care of her older brother Owen, after he suffered a major head trauma at Pipeline. Then at 22, she won her first World Title.
