With not a dry eye in the house and against the iconic backdrop of Miami Beach, Michael Duffy and Claptonn Mouche secured their first-ever Longines Global Champions Tour Grand Prix victory. The duo’s remarkable win was highlighted by their status as the sole double clear of the day.

While Duffy and Claptonn Mouche claimed the top spot, Max Kühner and EIC Cooley Jump finished two seconds faster but accumulated four faults over the Liverpool fence which caught out more than a couple of contenders. On form Frenchman, Julien Anquetin and Blood Diamond du Pont rounded off the podium as the second fastest four-faulter, contributing to an electrifying competition next to the Atlantic Ocean.
