After raising children and waging war on cancer, Margaret River windsurfer Jane Seman is within striking distance of a world title in a sport she almost gave up for good — twice.
The 52-year-old had only returned to the sport two years ago after a 20-year hiatus but now leads the women's International Windsurfing Tour and could put a maiden world title beyond doubt with a win at the upcoming stop in Fiji.
Though a final event will be held in Hawaii mid October, a win could give Seman an insurmountable ratings lead.
