Wright was introduced to the world of surfing when she was a young girl Her brothers and her parents have always been lovers of surfing in which surfing was instilled as a way of life in her family Wright did not disappoint from the beginning she was classified as a surfing prodigy Her older brother was a professional surfer and was her main motivation and role model
In 2008 when she was only 14 years old she surfed as a Wildcard becoming the youngest surfer in history to win a Championship Tour event at the Beachley Classic tournament in Sydney
Tyler Wrights Championship Tour Experience
In 2011 Wright officially entered the Championship Tour full time and opened with great participation in the Roxy Pro Finals She finished in fourth place as a rookie In 2013 she was runner up so it was to be expected that in the following years her first world championship would come
In 2014 Wright also finished runner up but in 2015 she had a tremendous decline However at the end of the season her attitude changed and she was close to beating the current 1 surfer in the Championship Tour world ranking Carissa Moore While all of this was going on her brother Owen was competing for the mens CT world championship but after an accident and suffering a life threatening brain injury Tylers outlook on surfing changed completely
After seeing her brother fight for what she loved most in the world which was surfing she became more focused on her goal of being the best womens surfer in the world This was demonstrated in 2016 when she won 5 events of the season including her first world title
Her second world title was just as impressive but for physical health reasons everyone thought that Wright would be out of the race after sustaining a terrible injury to one of her knees However she pushed and overcame the pain and achieved an excellent victory in the finals
At the height of her career Tyler contracted the flu on a trip to Africa in 2018 which caused her to lose 1 year of competition But like her brother Owen Tyler set out to overcome all barriers and regained her strength She further proved her surfing abilities by reaching the finals at the Maui 2019 event
