Starting the season at No. 10 on the Samsung Galaxy Championship Tour (CT), there's no doubt Josh Kerr (AUS) has a lot on his mind heading into the first CT event of the season, the Quiksilver Pro Gold Coast. But on Monday, February 16, a certain someone had his undivided attention. -- @josh_kerr84: A huge happy 8th birthday to my daughter @sierrakerr!!! I love you so much and I am so proud you! #timeflies #growuptoquick

This season, Silvana Lima (BRA) is returning to the women's Samsung Galaxy Championship Tour and with that comes a heavy travel schedule. It would appear that her furry friends are looking to fill her spot. -- @silvanalimasurf: Happy Valentine Day @bahia_bull_kennel #frenchiebulldog #frenchbulldog #canil #kennel #puppies #puppy #happyvalentineday #dog #love

Did you know that Kelly Slater (USA) plays golf? Currently ranked No. 4 on the men's CT rankings, Slater just finished at No. 4 in the 2015 AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. -- @kellyslater: #CrowdSelfie on the 18th hole of the #PebbleBeachProAm today. Thanks to the tournament for having me back again and to everyone who came out to enjoy it. Also good job to my pro playing partner, #MarcelSiem, who shot a 63 at Pebble Beach yesterday, one shot shy of the course record. I would've tagged everyone in this photo but I didn't want to miss any of you so I hope you find your heads in the crowd.

Laura Enever (AUS) had reason to celebrate over the weekend after winning the Hurley Australian Open of Surfing at Manly Beach. On the way to her first event victory since 2010, she took down fellow Aussies Stephanie Gilmore and Tyler Wright, World No. 1 and No. 2 respectively. Could this be the start of something? -- @lauraenever: Thankyou Thankyou all!!! Crazy awesome crowds down the beach yesterday. So much happy happy

Huntington Beach's Kanoa Igarashi snagged his first event win of 2015 when he topped the podium at the Hurley Australian Open of Surfing Junior Tour event.

Californian Sage Erickson has been training hard for her return to the CT in 2015. Having made it all the way to the Quarterfinals of the Hurley Australian Open, it appears she's hungry for results -- but she's still a good sport in defeat. -- @sageerickson: Aint she the greatest, especially t o d a y! So happy for this amazing human on her win. Happiest friend i know and so well deserved. Love you! @lauraenever

Hawaiian Malia Manuel finished equal fifth at the Hurley Australian Open. She'll need to break the curse of the Quarterfinals if she hopes to do better than No. 5 on the CT in 2015. But like Sage Erickson, even when she's not winning she's a great cheerleader for her friends. -- @maliamanuel: Congrats @lauraenever !!! Happy for you!!

Aussie Owen Wright didn't surf in the event at Manly Beach, opting instead to prepare himself for the Gold Coast. Wright found magic there, pulling a rabbit out of hat. -- @owright: Hiding out in a little hole on the gold coast today.... trust a goofy to find a left in the land of rights haha 📷 @stugibson

Wright's sister Tyler, on the other hand, chose to compete in the Hurley Australian Open of Surfing and surfed her way to the event Final, finishing runner-up to Laura Enever. Joining the crowd's outpouring of love for Enever, Wright's loss was full of smiles. -- @tylerwright: Beautiful day. Incredibly proud of @lauraenever #bearhug :) X 📷@magsymoo
