"I just saw him in the final, I was like "oh haha thank you," it was pretty funny cause it was a similar situation last year, he beat Gabriel in round three in Portugal which took Gabriel out of the title race and then he did it again here. But it was really fun surfing the final, it was nerve wracking he got that score in the end but I felt I did everything I could do and it was out of my control at that point," Florence said.
