    Plenty of Kiwi pride for Billy Stairmand despite failing to qualify directly into the third round of the men's surfing at the Olympic Games

    Plenty of Kiwi pride for Billy Stairmand despite failing to qualify directly into the third round of the men's surfing at the Olympic Games

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    He's come third in his heat with a score of 9-point-97, meaning he will now compete in an elimination heat later today.

    Stairmand's become the first New Zealander to surf at the Olympics, and says it was a special moment when he was introduced.



    Fellow Kiwi surfer Ella Williams is in action in the women's competition from 4pm.
