The  French women have started their tournament perfectly  au  FIP Bronze Poreč-Parenzo  (Croatia) with two clear and uncontested victories in the first round.

Touly and Peralta as bosses

Seeded  1 ,  Carla Toully  et  Lucía Peralta Expósito  did not tremble for their entry into the competition. Opposed to the Austrians  Alexandra Pils  et  Nina Duernberger , they delivered a demonstration:  6 / 1 6 / 1 .
A victory which confirms their status as  favorites  of the tournament. In  quarter-finals , planned  not before 17 a.m. (French time)  on the  short 3 , they will face the Croatians  Lea Jurković  et  Martina Minetti , a duel within their reach.

Merah and Dardaine without forcing

For their part, the pair  Steffi Merah / Marie-Amélie Dardaine , seeded  3 , also took place. The Tricolores dominated  Lea Subotic / Marija Mirosavljevic  on the score of  6 / 2 6 / 1 , without ever being worried.
They will meet the Italians in the quarter-finals  Letizia Dell'Agnese / Camilla Ronchini ,  seeded 5 in  17h on court 4 .

Towards an all-French semi-final?

If logic is respected, the two French pairs could  meet in the semi-final tomorrow , for a place in the final of the Croatian tournament.
Touly and Peralta are the clear favorites, while Merah and Dardaine will have to raise their game to overcome a strong Italian duo.

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 !
