On French Léa Godallier and Alix Collombon have launched their tournament perfectly at Newgiza Premier Padel P2, each validating its qualification for the round of XNUMX after a controlled entry into the fray.

Godallier / Marchetti unfold against the Egyptians

Opposed to local wildcards El Nimr and Hakim, Léa Godallier et Giorgia Marchetti did not tremble: 6 / 4, 6 / 1 in less than an hour of play. An ideal first round for the Franco-Italian pair, who will now face the seed n ° 4, Tamara Icardo and Marta Ortega, for a place in the quarter-finals. A real-life test where they will not be favorites against one of the strongest duos on the women's circuit.

Collombon and Montes take advantage of an open table

For Alix Collombon, this first day was synonymous with new start alongside by Jana Montes. The two players signed a great victory against Luján Rodriguez and Manquillo Alarza : 6 / 2, 6 / 4.
After a first set without a hitch, the second was more contested, but the Franco-Spanish team found the resources to make the decisive break at 5/4.

An opportunity towards the quarterfinals

Their next opponent will be the seed n ° 9, Bea Caldera and Carmen Goenaga, a poster that could have been completely different: Collombon was initially supposed to face Delfi Brea and Gemma Triay, the world number 1, before the Brea's package.
This withdrawal reshuffles the cards in the women's table and offers Collombon and Montes a real chance of reaching the quarter-finals, or even create a nice surprise in this tournament which is now more open than ever, even if, on paper, they are not the favorites.

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 !
