Seven rides the wave at Bells Beach

Rip Curl Pro Bells Beach
Live and free on 7plus from 10 April

Mick Fanning returns for this weekend’s Rip Curl Pro

Ride the wave on the Seven Network this weekend, when stop four of the World Surf League (WSL) Rip Curl Pro arrives at Australia’s home of surfing, Bells Beach, live and free from this Sunday at 7.30am AEDT on 7plus.

After a highly decorated career which spanned 17 years, three-time World Champion Mick Fanning will return to the waves at Bells Beach this weekend after receiving the event wildcard, following his retirement at the 2018 Rip Curl Pro.

In a bonus for Aussie surfing fans, Australian seven-time World Champion Stephanie Gilmore will also feature in the women’s events at Bells Beach, against fellow local surfers Isabella Nichols, Sally Fitzgibbons, Bronte Macaulay, India Robinson and Tyler Wright. Australian up-and-coming surfing star Molly Picklum will also hit the waves and is looking to be Australia’s best chance at taking out the women’s event.

Following the sport’s triumphant debut at last year’s Olympic Games Tokyo 2020, all of the WSL’s live contests and highlights shows across the 2022 season – including Bells Beach – will be broadcast across the Seven Network and live-streamed on 7plus, Australia’s #1 commercial free-to-air BVOD platform.

The upcoming WSL events broadcast on Seven and 7plus are:

  • Rip Curl Pro, Bells Beach: 10 April to 20 April (Stop #4, Championship Tour)
  • Margaret River Pro, Margaret River: 24 April to 4 May (Stop #5, Championship Tour)
  • Boost Mobile Gold Coast Pro, Gold Coast: 7 May to 15 May (Stop #1, Challenger Series)
  • GWM Sydney Surf Pro, Manly Beach: 17 May to 27 May (Stop #2, Challenger Series)

Live coverage on 7plus will include all stops of the world’s premier surfing competition, the WSL Championship Tour, along with the Challenger Series, the Rip Curl WSL Finals and select Australian-based Qualifying Series events, while the deal also sees Seven broadcast the Rip Curl WSL Finals on free-to-air television as well as 11 hour-long highlights of Championship Tour events.

Bells Beach is one highlight of a jam-packed year of surfing that will continue all the way through to December, with the last stop of the Challenger Series at Haleiwa, Hawaii.

Key events on 7plus:

Men’s Heat 3

Australia’s Owen Wright goes head-to-head with the greatest competitive surfer of all time, Kelly Slater from the US.

Men’s Heat 5

Four-time Bells Beach winner, Mick Fanning, faces an all-Brazilian battle in his first round against Filipe Toledo and Samuel Pupo. Toledo was runner-up at the Rip Curl Pro in 2019 and will look to go one better.

Men’s Heat 8

Aussies Connor O’Leary and Jackson Baker will go up against John John Florence, who took out the Rip Curl Pro at Bells Beach in 2019.

Women’s Heat 4

Australia’s Stephanie Gilmore and Molly Picklum hit the waves against Costa Rica’s Brisa Hennessy.

Amateur night in Dixie! If the AFLW Grand Final was on Ten there’d be lots of derogatory comments. Until half time ads, 1/4time break etc was showing last nights Geelong vs Brisbane Lions score. Then at 1/2time break we got Adelaide 17 Melbourne 0 which eventually changed to 17-7, thecorrect score. Why can’t I watch AFL Grand Finals on Kayo and not this amateur mob.

The AFLW GF was available on Kayo (though simulcasting Seven’s feed due to the way the AFLW rights deal operated).

Thanks for that. Not too bad for an oldie, thriple vaxxed,wouldn’t like to have it as an unvaxxed person. Anyway back to the topic thanks for letting me know AFLW was on Kayo. I’m disappointed Melbourne lost, unfortunately (for me) Adelaide were the much better side. .

Sport fans are in for an epic Easter of sport on the Seven Network, starting tonight and featuring five straight days of unmissable live and free action on Seven and 7plus.

The Easter extravaganza kicks off when the Brisbane Lions host Collingwood tonight for Thursday Night Footy at the Gabba, broadcast live and free on Channel 7 from 7.30pm AEST.

On Friday, AFL fans will be thrilled when North Melbourne take on the Western Bulldogs in the annual Good Friday SuperClash at Marvel Stadium from 4.00pm AEST, during Seven’s 65th Annual Good Friday Appeal broadcast.

With promising conditions forecast, the surfing action continues today live and free on 7plus for the remainder of the World Surf League (WSL) Championship Tour’s Rip Curl Pro at Bells Beach.

In a boost for state league footy fans, key games from the SANFL, WAFL and VFL will be streamed live and free on 7plus, starting with the SANFL’s Norwood v Port Adelaide clash, from 7.30pm ACST on Friday. WAFL fans will be treated to the Round One Subiaco v South Fremantle clash at 2.00pm AWST on Saturday, before Port Melbourne host Essendon from 2.00pm AEST on Sunday afternoon.

Rounding out the weekend’s feast of football are:

On the closing day of Sydney’s Autumn Carnival, the Group 1 $600,000 All Aged Stakes and the Group 1 $500,000 Champagne Stakes headline the thoroughbred racing action from Royal Randwick. Star filly Fireburn will look to become the seventh horse in history to nab Australia’s two-year-old Triple Crown should she win the highly-anticipated Champagne Stakes.

Other highlights at Caulfield include the Group 3 Easter Cup (2000m) and Victoria Handicap (1400m), along with the Listed Redoute’s Choice Stakes (1000m) for two-year-olds.

In the lead-up to the Hawthorn v Geelong AFL blockbuster on Easter Monday, Seven will bring fans the 140th running of Australia’s richest footrace, the Stawell Gift, from 11.30am AEST on Channel 7 and 7plus.

Adding to the action on Easter Monday, motorsport revs up with the 2022 Motorsport Australia Rally Championship Round One highlights show, broadcast on 7mate and 7plus from 1.30pm.

Managing Director Seven Melbourne and Head of Network Sport, Lewis Martin, said: “There is something for every Australian on the Seven Network this Easter.

“With the footy blockbuster on Thursday night, three highly anticipated rounds of state league footy, Sydney and Melbourne Autumn racing, the world’s best surfers at Bells Beach and the iconic Stawell Gift, these five days are a dream for sports lovers and fans alike. There’s only one place to catch all the action and that’s live and free right here on Seven, Your Home of Sport.”
