This is an association that was already making a name for itself after the two FIP Silver awards in Réunion, and it is now proving its long-term viability. In 2026, Yanis Muesser will evolve alongside Philemon RaichmanTwo different profiles, two very distinct trajectories, but a common ambition: to take the next step, to aim higher, and to establish themselves permanently among the top pairs, both in France and internationally, by competing in the FIP Tour.

Yanis Muesser, an obvious but striking evolution

After choosing to leave again 2025 next to Simon WagnerYanis Muesser, with whom he had already dominated the French circuit from 2021 to 2023 and formed an extremely promising pair, had a stellar season. He had established himself at home at G's P1000Padel, had noted a fine victory at P1500 from Grenobleand added to his list of achievements five others P1000 won in 2025.

A more than decent season for the Strasbourg player, who has steadily improved in terms of the quality of his play, but who has also climbed to French ranking around the 50th place in January 2025, It is henceforth 17th French.

Such progression pushed him to try his hand at the FIP circuit at the end of 2025 : since July, five FIP Silver to his credit and already three quarter-finals playedincluding two in Reunion next to… Philemon Raichman.

Current 5th French playerPhilemon Raichman did not achieve as many notable results as Muesser on the French circuithe who has mainly focused his season around the FIP tournamentsThis direction has notably allowed him to shine on the international stage at the beginning of the year: alongside Menno NoltenReichman treated himself to a gala quarter-final at Gijón P2 in March, before falling to the overwhelming favorites Argentina, Tolito Aguirre et Gonzalo Alfonsoas well as four othersquarter-finals enFIP Silver during the season.

His year alongside Julien Seurin is notably marked by a round of 16 appearance in the FIP Silver of Narbonne. In Bandol, with Max Joris, he lost in the round of 16 against Collado / Hernandez (7/5 6/3), at the end of a close match. Same scenario at French Championships, this time with Simon Wagner, with a defeat in the round of 16 against Tison / Forcin, in three sets.

rarely simple draws, but one constant remains: Raichman never gives up, even when facing formidable opponents. Sometimes frustrating resultsBut one observation remains: Philemon remains one of the most complete players in France..

During the FIP Silver from Champ FleuriThey were defeated after a real battle against two players in the world's Top 70, Antonio Fernandez and Pablo Garcia. In this partnership, Muesser impressed with his aggression and efficiency, while Raichmann adapted to the rhythm of the match with disconcerting ease and established himself as a true rock in defense.

A fresh-faced Yanis Muesser making his FIP debut, a Philémon Raichman in better form than ever: the foundations are there. Now it's time to see this pair perform sustainablyin France as in Europe. Two initial dates have been marked: Bordeaux P2000 et FIP Silver of Caen.
