SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4 (UPI) -- Kelly Slater lost his 2011 season crown, at least temporarily, after the Association of Surfing Professionals said Friday it had made an error in the standings.
The veteran American had seemingly clinched his 11th ASP World Title Tuesday after the third round of the Rip Curl Pro Search San Francisco, but tour officials announced that due to a calculation error the championship was still undecided.
