What is the WQS?
To qualify for the honour of competing with the world's best surfers on the ASP World Tour, competitors amass points through a qualification programme, known as the WQS or World Qualification Series.

History
The WQS was introduced in 1992 as a feeder competition to what was then called the WCT (World Championship Tour). The top scoring sixteen surfers on the WQS replaced the lowest scoring sixteen form the WCT on the following year's tour.
