Le FIP Silver Bandol gets down to business this Friday with the launch of men's main draw Many French athletes will be on the slopes throughout the day, with several matches particularly anticipated.
And among them, one encounter particularly stands out: Yoan Boronad / Timéo Fonteny salary. Manuel Vives / Olivier Guy de Chamisso A clash that already feels like a quarter-final, or even a semi-final, before the final.
Fonteny / Boronad vs. Vives / Guy de Chamisso, a match not to be missed
Scheduled for last rotation on the Alpine track This duel will pit two of the best pairs in the tournament against each other.
On the one hand, Timeo Fonteny et Yoan Boronad The fifth-seeded pair will exceptionally reunite for this tournament. The two young Frenchmen have already proven their worth on the international circuit and will undoubtedly have high ambitions in Bandol.
The other, Manuel Vives gradually regains its best level on the FIP Tour Associated with his club partner Olivier Guy de Chamisso He forms a particularly dangerous team. Guy de Chamisso is notably still riding high on his title at the FIP Bronze from Marnes-la-Coquette where he had made a lasting impression.

An important day for the French team
With a strong French presence in the draw, this first day could already offer several great French performances.
But all eyes will undoubtedly be on the duel between Fonteny / Boronad et Vives / Guy de Chamisso , a match that promises a particularly high level of play right from the round of 32.
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 !
