Difficult end of the day for the Tricolores at FIP Platinum Lyon, where the majority of French representatives fell in the first round. Only Léa Godallier, associated with Giorgia Marchetti, manages to pull off a masterclass, qualifying his pair for the round of 16 after a solid performance.

Godallier and Marchetti secure their rank

They were favorites, and they lived up to their status. Giorgia Marchetti and Léa Godallier delivered a serious performance against Dominguez et Martínez, imposing 6 / 1 6 / 3.
The Franco-Italian pair confirms its good momentum after their qualification last week for the main draw of the Milan P1.
Tomorrow, they will try to continue their journey against a very big challenge: the seed n ° 6, Jessica Castello / Lorena Rufo.

Boronad and Fonteny close to the feat

Young people Yoan Boronad et Timeo Fonteny, beneficiaries of a wildcard, impressed despite the defeat against Javi Garrido (20th in the world) and Diego Gil.
After losing the first set in a tie-break and winning the second, the French finally gave in 7/6 5/7 6/0.
An encouraging performance against a pair of world top, which once again proves the potential of the French duo.

Bergeron and Blanqué still in difficulty

Third consecutive defeat in the first round of an international tournament for Johan Bergeron et Bastien Blanqué, beaten 6 / 4 7 / 6 by Adrián Ronco López / Luis Oliver Artigas, from the qualifications.
A frustrating match, with some good sequences but also some costly slumps, especially in key moments.
The French were leading 4/0 in the second set tie-break before collapsing, letting slip a great opportunity to reach the last sixteen.

Touly and Peralta pass very close

Another frustrating scenario for Carla Toully et Lucia Peralta, beaten 6 / 4 7 / 6 by Carolina Navarro Björk / Monica Gómez Rivas.
The Franco-Spanish team had a break in the first set and set points in the second, but they were unable to conclude.
A defeat that leaves regrets, as qualification seemed within reach.

Barla and Lambert dominated but growing

Finally, the young pair Kimy Barla / Lou Lambert Agosti, wildcard, could do nothing against the seed n ° 2 composed ofAlejandra Alonso et Lucia Sainz, two players in the world's top 20.
A failure 6 / 1 6 / 1, logical given the opponent's level, but a valuable experience for the two French women who are discovering the very high international level.

Four French pairs in the last 16 tomorrow

France will therefore count 4 pairs in the 8th final What did you eat?

  • Adrien Maigret / Olivier Guy de Chamisso
  • Manuel Vives / Dylan Guichard
  • Léa Godallier / Giorgia Marchetti
  • Bahurel / Pothier

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 !
