After their remarkable performance at FIP Platinum of Marseillethe new French pair, Johan Bergeron et Timeo Fonteny continues its momentum. Next stop: Egypt this week, where the French team qualified comfortably for the quarter-finals of the FIP Silver of Egypt.
A fairly quiet start to the tournament
So far, the French team's run has resembled a controlled build-up. No scares, no drawn-out matches.
In the round of 32, Johan Bergeron et Timeo Fonteny They perfectly controlled their entry against a Greek pair: 6 / 3, 6 / 3A clean, serious encounter, in line with what they had shown in Marseille.
The same scenario played out this morning against two local players who had come through qualifying. The conditions were far from ideal: a strong wind, sand everywhere – a typical recipe for outdoor tournaments in the region. But once again, the French players adapted quickly, imposing their rhythm to secure the victory. 6 / 3, 6 / 3.
Without forcing it, seed 4 He therefore takes over the quarter.
A tougher quarter-final
This time, the level is raised a notch.
The French will face a stronger pairing on paper, with the Argentinian Dylan Cuello (220e) and especially Martin Abud (133th), a young Paraguayan player who had already attracted attention during the FIP Platinum of Marseille.
Having come through qualifying in Provence, Abud had made a strong impression with his explosive style and power, before bowing out in eighth finals Just like Bergeron and Fonteny. A player capable of putting a lot of intensity in the exchange and to disrupt any pair when he imposes his rhythm.
The meeting is scheduled for around 19pm in Egypti.e 20 p.m. French time.
A real test for the new French pair, now eagerly awaited at every outing.
