Sofia Mulanovich (24 June 1983):
Sofia is the 1st Peruvian surfer to ever win an ASP WCT World event.
In 2004, she won three out of six WCT events and finished the season as World Champion!
That day, she went down in history, as the FIRST South American (man or woman) to ever win the World Title!!!
On 27th July 2007, Sofia was inducted into the Surfers' Hall of Fame.
She is the first South American to have this honour.
Today she is still winning events, and has become a heroine in her hometown of Peru.
She has proven to those around her, that if you put your whole heart, mind and strength into it, you can achieve it.
It does not matter where you come from, or where you've been.
It's not the start that matters, it's the finish that counts.
