The adventure ends in the first few rounds for the French competitors in the FIP Silver Damac Dubai, in a particularly challenging tournament where several world top 30 pairs are present.

The tournament had started well for Camille Sireix (148) et Melissa Martin (150), victorious in their opening match against the Japanese Kushima Yoshino et Tokumoto Kae (1/6 6/3 6/4).
After a difficult start to the match, the French women managed to react, finding their form. aggressiveness and cohesion to reverse the trend and secure a great victory.

But in the round of 16, the challenge proved too great: they faced the seeded 1, Lucia Sainz (18) et Raquel Eugenio (33), two players well established in the world top 30.
Defeats 6 / 1 6 / 0The French women were powerless against the experience and discipline of the top seed. A logical defeat, but a valuable experience against players of this caliber.

Guichard and Luque trapped from the outset

At men's, Dylan Guichard (136) and his Portuguese partner Antonio Luque (188) failed to make it past the first round. Opposed to Sergio Icardo (179) et Francisco Jurado Sosa (230), they bow 6 / 1 7 / 6.
A tricky match against an experienced duo; on paper, the Frenchman and the Portuguese seemed to be favorites, but Icardo, former 85th in the world He and his partner have rankings that don't reflect their level of play. Despite a good second set, the Frenchman and his partner leave Dubai earlier than expected.

Guichard will have the opportunity to bounce back quickly since he will be signed next week at global pairswhere he will try to revive his momentum.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
