“This morning, we're playing two players who beat Zapata and his partner yesterday. Two big players, and we're really playing one of our biggest matches together with Timéo, if not the biggest. We won 6/4 7/5, and still won. 6 gold points out of 6. So we were very solid in the important moments. We are very happy!”

“The conditions are very favorable for balls that go out. Timéo's smash is still a big weapon. Yesterday, we played a great match, both of us solid, and we played well. We'll try to get more this afternoon against Barahona and Garcia, even if we know it's going to be very tough, but we believe in it.”

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 !
