Connor O’Leary – FAR EAST

Connor O’Leary has one of the most lethal backhands in the world.

Born and raised in the southern Sydney suburb of Cronulla, Connor barely registered on the media’s radar when he qualified for the World Tour in 2017. But none of that bothered the genial workhorse who grew up the son of two hardcore surfing parents.
