A few months after the first edition,  Marie-Amélie Dardaine and Clara Mansart  will be back at  FIP Bronze Marnes-la-Coquette . A pair that is becoming well known on the international circuit and that has been accumulating good results for several months.

After an encouraging first appearance in Marnes in May, the two Frenchwomen return with more experience and the ambition to take a new step forward.

A promising first visit to Marnes

During the first edition of the  FIP Bronze Marnes Dardaine and Mansart had seen their run end in the round of 16. But the draw had clearly not been kind to them, as they had found themselves back in the  3rd seed, Aida Martinez / Camila Fassio .

The French women, however, put up a good fight, ultimately losing  6 / 4 7 / 5  facing a pair that were significantly better ranked on paper.

Since then, the results have confirmed the positive impressions left during this tournament.

Results keep coming on the FIP Tour

The French pair notably signed a  semi-final at the FIP Silver Bandol before moving on to a very good  quarter-final at the FIP Silver Narbonne .

In Narbonne, Dardaine and Mansart had once again shown that they could compete with players accustomed to the international circuit, notably with a fine victory against  Steffi Merah / Fiona Ligi .

They then confirmed with a new  semi-final at the FIP Bronze Dronten .

Since their time in Marnes, the two Frenchwomen have shown real consistency on the  FIP Tour A first final is now needed to solidify this progress.

Clara Mansart is progressing at great speed

The trajectory of  Clara Mansart  is particularly interesting. She has been fully committed to padel for less than a year and she is already near the top.  208th place in the world .

This progress is all the more interesting as she builds her ranking almost exclusively in Europe, where the FIP Tour charts are often particularly competitive.

By his side,  Marie-Amelie Dardaine With more experience on the circuit, she brings her consistency and knowledge of these international events. This complementary approach is working and starting to produce results.

Why not a first final in Marnes?

For this second edition,  Dardaine / Mansart  They will therefore arrive with real ambitions. After several quarter-finals and semi-finals, the objective will now be to take another step forward.

For the moment, they even appear as  the highest-ranked pair among the first registered But the list is still far from final: there remains  ten days before the registration deadline  and several pairs should bolster the picture.

A few months after leaving Marnes in the eighth grade,  Dardaine and Mansart return with more experience, results, and confidence. And why not, this time, go for that first international final that has so far eluded them.

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 !
