Gemma Triay et Delfi Brea once again made a strong impression on the circuit Premier Padel. This Saturday, in the semi-final of the Miami P1, the 2nd seed imposed itself with authority against Marta Ortega et Sofia Araujo, on the undisputed score of 6 / 2 6 / 1. A successful performance, which propels them into third consecutive final, after their titles in Gijón and Cancún.

A first set contested... then controlled

But the favorites, full of confidence, raised their level. Gemma Triay, in particular, delivered an XXL performance, clean, incisive, with almost no direct errors, reminding everyone why she is considered one of the best left-handed players on the tourHis solidity and effectiveness in attack put the opposing camp in trouble, causing growing frustration for Sofia Araujo, increasingly in difficulty.

A second one-way set

  • Only 13 unforced errors for them (against 16 for their opponents),
  • 41 winning pointsEither almost double of the 22 won by Ortega and Araujo.

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 !
