There have been lots of rumors last year, lots of question will Kelly retire after last years season. The 2007 WCT tour ended with Mick Fanning winning, Kelly Slater finished in third place. Kelly was still in contention two events before the end, but he just could not get on track. But with his surfing still stellar as ever he is a major world title contender for the 2008 season if he stays on tour.
