Stephanie Gilmore scored her seventh world championship crown before the outcome of the tenth and final round of the season in Hawaii.

The Australian surfer has secured the title by qualifying for the quarterfinals, where she will face the French Johanne Defay.

She also benefited from the untimely defeat of American Lakey Peterson, the only one who could still beat her in the standings.

At 30, and with seven world titles to her credit, Stephanie Gilmore has joined her compatriot Layne Beachley in the record book.

But he still has a way to go to catch up with "King" Kelly Slater, eleven-time men's favorite.
