The CT’s been accosting Coolangatta’s sand-bottomed point for the better part of a week, and chances are you’ve already made up your mind on who’s gonna win.

If not, we’re here to help.

Above, Stace G and Mikey get clinical on the Tour to date, then prophesize who might ascend our wonky 2026 leaderboard this week on the Gold Coast. They even make winner predictions down to the very heat.

Below, Betonline’s Erik Apple (who’ll be on-site at Snapper harassing surfers and mulleted Australians all week) grills Mikey C on the exact coordinates of Vanuatu and some obscure WSL rulebook bylaws.

Below that are Mikey’s actual bets for the week. Historically speaking, you’d be smart to pull a George Costanza and do the exact opposite of what he says.

Mikey C is 0/2 this year, losing money at both Bells and Margarets. You sure you want to follow him?
