Mick Fanning has achieved pretty much everything in surfing. He’s rebounded from a gruesome, career-threatening injury to win three world titles, completed 16 World Tour seasons, travelled the globe, surfed under the Northern Lights and been honoured with an Order of Australia by the Queen for his contribution to the sport. And punched a sizeable shark on the nose live on TV.
So perhaps it is little surprise to hear the 36-year-old has no regrets whatsoever when reflecting upon an eventful professional career, which will soon come to an end. “I’ve achieved more than I ever dreamed of,” he tells Guardian Australia after announcing he will farewell the pro circuit at Bells Beach next month. “As a kid, you dream of becoming world champion, but to get there is such a different reality. I’ve done things I would never have dreamed of. If I felt like I was regretting something, I would have addressed it at that time and tried to change things.”
