Bastien Blanqué and Johan Bergeron continue their superb momentum on the international circuit. This Sunday, the French won the FIP Bronze final in Manila by winning against the Spanish Albert Trillas Garcia and Josep Aymerich Bellmunt on the score of 6 / 2 7 / 6.
In the first set, the “BB” quickly took control of the game. Solid on their serves and precise in return, they unfold to win 6/2.
But on the other side, Trillas and Aymerich demonstrated their fighting spirit once again. Closely contested in the second set, they were able to raise their level to push the French to a tie-break. A decisive game that Blanqué and Bergeron have perfectly mastered, drawing on their experience to conclude the meeting without trembling.
This title is the second consecutive for Blanqué and Bergeron after their victory at FIP Bronze of Kaunas. It also concludes a series of three finals in a row on the FIP circuit, after the one contested at Wooden. Consistency at the highest level which allows them to collect 40 new FIP points and slowly but surely getting closer to the world top 100.
Next step for the French duo: Caltanissetta’s FIP Silver, in Italy, in two weeks.
