SURFING | Filipino surfer Rogelio Jay-r Esquivel Jr. delivered a strong performance to finish third in the Lexus US Open of Surfing, the opening leg of the International Men’s Longboard Tour 2025, held at Huntington Beach, California, USA.

Esquivel, a 2019 SEA Games gold medalist and regular World Surf League campaigner, showcased his skill and composure throughout the early rounds. He defeated Tony Silvagni of the United States and Antonio Dantas of Portugal in the opening round, pulled off an upset over Australia’s Max Weston in the Round of 16, and outclassed Hawaii’s Kaniela Stewart in the quarterfinals.

The pride of San Juan, La Union, Esquivel’s impressive run came to an end in the semifinals, where he narrowly lost to American Taylor Jensen.

Jensen posted a score of 13.84, edging out Esquivel’s 12.77.

This marked a familiar showdown, as Jensen had also denied Esquivel the title at the 2024 Huntington Beach Longboard Classic, where the Filipino surfer settled for silver.
