Doubts hover around sanyo gutierrez regarding his participation in the Paris Major. The Argentinian was forced to withdraw in the first round of the Valladolid P1, after feeling discomfort in his right adductor.

As expected, the meeting between Sanyo Gutierrez / Alex Arroyo face Leo Augsburger / Alex Chozas was particularly tight. Both teams failed to break in the first set and the set should have ended at tie-breaker. However, Sanyo decided to throw in the towel, to everyone's surprise.

The explanation can be found on Instagram, where the Argentinian posted a long explanatory message:

"Hello everyone,
I wanted to talk to you about my package today.
On Sunday morning, while playing a match to prepare for the tournament, I felt pain in the adductor of my right leg. After 48 hours, the minimum recommended time for an ultrasound, yesterday during the tournament, it appeared that I had a 1 centimeter hematoma.
I wanted to try very carefully, but at 6/5 the pain came back, and little by little I felt that my leg was losing strength.
I thank the physiotherapists and doctors at the tournament for trying to help me in everything.
I thank my team and my family for always being by my side and supporting me at every moment.
I'm really sorry, Valladolid, I really wanted to play here, where I lived for 4 years.
I hope to be 100% for Paris.
@alexarroyoalbert, that wasn't the goodbye I wanted to give you, but that's how it is in sports. Good luck with your new team.”

This injury comes at the worst possible time for Sanyo Gutierrez, ten days before the Paris Major, the third major of the year. In his message, we can see that the Argentinian hopes to be in shape for the event, without this being certain.

This abandonment also marks the end of the Arroyo / Gutierrez pair. The two players will follow different paths: Sanyo with Victor Ruiz and Alex with Alex Ruiz. The latter will be found at FIP ​​Gold Lyon !

For their part, Alex Chozas and Leo Augsburger are offering themselves a second round and a big fight today, where they will face Alex Ruiz and Javi Garrido!

It was her brother who one day told her to accompany him to a padel court, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the retransmission of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
