The title came very close for Louise Bahurel à DéniaAssociated with the Spanish player Mónica Gómez Rivas (ranked 70th in the world), the No. 2 seed lost in the final of this FIP Bronze face Ainize Santamaría Landa et Giorgia Rosi (TS4) on the score of 6/4 5/7 6/2.

A great missed opportunity

With the withdrawal of the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds before the tournament, Bahurel and Gómez Rivas inherited the status of seeded 2 and had a real chance to win a title. After a solid run, they ultimately bowed out at the end of a close match.

A very good run nonetheless.

Their tournament remains positive: after controlled early rounds, they recorded a big semi-final facing the Spanish pair María Teresa Moriñigo Gómez / Blanca Arriola Cerrejón (TS3), won 5/7 6/1 6/2. In the final, despite a good level of play, the Franco-Spanish pair eventually succumbed after nearly two hours of fighting.

Second FIP final of the season

It's here second FIP final of the season for Louise Bahurel, already a finalist in FIP Silver Trecar Cup earlier this year.

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 !
