Jorge Martínez will no longer be on the bench Delfi Brea and Gemma TriayThe Spanish technician, who accompanied the pair in tandem with Rodrigo Ovide, announced the news in a interview given to the SPORT TV channel.
No conflict or abrupt break-up, but a reasoned decision, dictated by a group dynamic that was no longer functioning perfectly. I have nothing but good things to say about Gemma, » explains Jorge Martínez. “ Professionally, she's fantastic, and on a personal level, we get along very well. But we have a communication problem. »
A misalignment that, according to him, is neither rare nor serious in a team sport as demanding as professional padel. Sometimes these things happen, and it's not necessarily negative. »
Aware of the need for a united and coherent staff, Jorge Martínez preferred to take a step back: " You have to recognize your role in a team sport. Mine now is to support Delfi, who remains my player, but from a different perspective, no longer from the bench. »
This withdrawal therefore leaves Rodrigo Ovide alone at the head of the technical team of the Brea / Triay pair. A choice that could simplify the management of the duo, at a crucial moment of the season, when the pair are fighting for the number 1 spot.
