Pauline Menczer: World champion surfer finally getting the recognition she deserves
Pauline Menczer is a women’s world champion surfer who, at the height of her success, went completely unnoticed and ignored - because she didn’t look the part of an ‘Aussie female surfer’. Despite the odds against her, she persevered and, as part of a bold group of female surfers, successfully fought to have women formally and financially acknowledged in major surfing competitions. Today, she is finally getting the recognition and respect that she deserves, continuing to champion the underdogs that are coming up in her wake.
