An Olympic silver medal has fuelled Jack Robinson's surfing world title ambitions as competition returns to Fiji's iconic Cloudbreak to decide the Finals-bound top five.
Only rankings leader John John Florence of Hawaii is assured of a spot in next month's title decider at Lower Trestles in California, where five surfers will compete in a one-day, winner-take-all showdown.
With Fiji the last stop before then, West Australian Robinson is currently ranked No.3 while fellow Australian Olympian Ethan Ewing sits fifth, with only 5065 points separating third and Brazil's two-time event winner and Games bronze medallist Gabriel Medina in eighth.
