The international season got off to a strong start in Riyadh with the  Riyadh qualifications Premier Padel P1 The French who took part experienced varying fortunes, between  express demonstrations  et  initial disappointment .

 Blanqué/Guichard were efficient and already looking ahead to what comes next 

 Bastien Blanqué  et  Dylan Guichard  left no chance for the local wild cards  Almuhim / Almuraj .
Clear victory  6 / 0 6 / 2  en   35 minutes  The French, overwhelming favorites, cruised to victory without breaking a sweat, which  arrive fresh  for the next stage of the qualifiers.

The next meeting will be of a completely different caliber:

  •  Opponents  :  Marc Quílez / Federico Mourino  (2nd seed in qualifying)
  •  Schedule  :  tomorrow, 3th rotation at 10am  (local hour)
  •  Short  :  central 

 Godallier / Marchetti, perfect performance 

In the ladies,  Léa Godallier  and the Italian  Giorgia Marchetti  (TS4) also made a strong impact.
Facing the wild cards  Alhowaish / Salhab They are essential.  6 / 0 6 / 0  en   27 minutes  a  perfect copy  which confirms their status and allows them to approach the next round in the best possible conditions.

Next challenge:

  •  Schedule  :  tomorrow, 4th rotation at 10am  (local hour)
  •  Short  :  short 2

On the other hand, the day was more complicated for  Carla Toully  et  Camila Fassio Opposed from the outset to the  seeded 5 ,  Aguilar / Bellver , they bow  6 / 4 6 / 1 .
A  frustrating defeat  for the French and Spanish players, who leave the tournament in the first round.

 Looking ahead to tomorrow 

With  Blanqué / Guichard  et  Godallier / Marchetti  still in the race and  in the freshness The next round of qualifying is expected  much more spicy .

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 !
