Bronte Macaulay

Bronte Macaulay, born on 9 January 1994, is an Australian professional surfer who competes in the World Surf League. She learned to surf along the coast of Western Australia at the age of nine, taught by her father Dave Macaulay, an icon of professional surfing in the 1980s and 1990s, who also coached her older twin sisters. In 2016 she finished one place short of qualifying for the Championship Tour but received a replacement spot when Lakey Peterson was unable to continue after breaking her ankle. In her six events that year she beat Sally Fitzgibbons at Snapper and Stephanie Gilmore and Johanne Defay at home in Margaret River, and she became an official member of the tour in 2017. Her sponsors have included Roxy, Dave Macaulay Surfboards, Electric, Creatures of Leisure and Sticky Feet.
