Angry pool in the Trunk/Trunk Leak

Trunk is taking in lots of water & I am having difficulty locating the origin of the leak seems to be coming from the front left side of the trunk tray. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Mine doesnt it to, theres been posts about it before. If you havent adjusted your trunk stoppers becasue that would be one casue, it would be the vents in the trunk. They are located behind the bumper and have a tendency to get water through them. They need to be sealed.

Some people have reported that the flap was deformed and not laying flat, like it should, requiring replacement or they turn to a strait up silicon seal job.
I think that in some cases, water is blowing past the flap during the car washing process. The flap opens into the trunk area.
If you shoot water up behind the rear plate, water will get past the flap.
