SINGAPORE: American teenager Phillip Soven has won his fifth consecutive Wakeboard World Cup title in Singapore.
The new venue at Marina Bay did not affect Soven as he thrilled the 7,500 crowd.
This year, it was a party-like atmosphere for the Singapore leg of the Wakeboard World Cup.
After being staged at Bedok Reservoir for the past four years, Marina Bay proved more challenging with the rougher waters.
Whatever the conditions, Philip Soven could not be stopped as he powered his way to his fifth victory and the US$15,000 top prize.
Singapore also proved lucky for defending champion Dallas Friday who collected US$8,000 after winning the women's title. - CNA/de
