Aussie Robson ends Fanning's Bells cameo

Callum Robson has produced an after-the-siren upset to end Mick Fanning's shot at a record fifth Bells Beach title.

Australian Robson produced a 7.77-point effort on his final wave, scores returning as he hit the beach after their round-of-16 Rip Curl Pro heat to win 14.50 to 14.27.

The 40-year-old Fanning, who has come out of retirement to chase Bells history as a wildcard, reached the last 16 after eliminating world No.1 Kanoa Igarashi in an upset on Thursday.
