The second to last event on the ASP Women\u0092s World Tour, the Roxy Pro Hawaii will enjoy a November 24 to December 6 waiting period, prime dates for big Hawaiian surf.<\/p>\n<p>\u0093I\u0092ve had a lot of success at Sunset, so I\u0092m feeling pretty confident,\u0094 Beachley said. \u0093They actually call me Miss. Sunset because I\u0092ve won five out of the last seven events there. To wrap up my seventh world title there would be amazing.\u0094<\/p>\n<p>Back at the meaty break of Sunset Beach after being held in nearby Halewia for the past five years, the Roxy Pro Hawaii will feature 16 of the world\u0092s Top 17 female surfers, a wildcard and an injury replacement surfer to fill the shoes of rookie Silvana Lima (BRA) who is suffering a knee injury. Each will be eager to showcase their repertoires in the critically powerful right hander.<\/p>\n<p>World No. 2 Melanie Redman-Carr (AUS) won the 6-star World Qualifying Series (WQS) event held at Sunset Beach last year. She will want to post a similarly impressive result in 2006 if she hopes to keep her title dreams alive heading into the final ASP Women\u0092s World Tour event in Maui this December. Only Redman-Carr, Beachley and Georgeson remain in contention for the 2006 crown. Only Beachley can clinch at Sunset.*<\/p>\n<p>Sofia Mulanovich (PER) has taken an early lead in the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing ratings, a series which awards an additional $10,000 to the top performing female surfer over three events &#8211; the already completed Op Pro Hawaii, a 6-star WQS and the Roxy Pro Hawaii and Billabong Pro Maui, both ASP Women\u0092s World Tour events.<\/p>\n<p>Mulanovich won the Op Pro Hawaii at Haleiwa last week \u0096 a victory which saw her catapult to 5th on the WQS, thus earning her automatic requalification onto the elite ASP Women\u0092s World Tour in 2007 (the Top 6 surfers on the WQS earn spots on next year\u0092s elite tour). She is currently qualifying on both tours.<\/p>\n<p>Several surfers accustomed to easy requalification via the ASP Women\u0092s World Tour will need results in the upcoming Hawaiian events to maintain their elite tour status;
