Le  FIP Bronze Marnes  will step up a gear this Thursday with the launch of the men's main draw and the schedule is now known.

You’ll find here:

  • a large majority of  Men's Round of 16 
  • as well as some matches from the women's draw

And from this first day, several very big matches await the French.

 Vanbauce / Pillon against Leygue / Fernandez  

The Bordeaux pair:

  •  Thomas Vanbauce / Lucas Pillon 
    will directly confront:
  •  Thomas Leygue / Antonio Fernandez  (TS2)

A tough first round between four in-form players. Leygue and Fernandez will be the clear favorites on paper, but Vanbauce and Pillon will be looking to cause an upset in their first tournament together.

 Seux / Courrin against Robert / Guy de Chamisso 

Another major French duel:

  •  Thomas Seux / Nathan Courrin 
    against :
  •  Jeremy Robert / Olivier Guy de Chamisso 

A match that promises a lot in a particularly crowded draw.

 Other French people to watch 

Several other French athletes will also be competing:

  •  Philemon Raichman / Yanis Muesser  face  Rafael Marquet / Thomas Panken 
  •  Louis Jover / Lucas Potel  against the Dutch  Roman Wink / Merlijn De Krom 
  •  Romain Sichez / Theo Suzanna  will play  Kamel Mouimen / Bouaouda Anass 
  •  Julien Motz / Guillaume Ledrap  will challenge the TS8  Ferran Gonzalez / Jairo Guerrero 
  •  Arthur Hugounenq / Maxime Forcin  will face a big challenge against TS9  Nieto Simon / Candelo Casas 
  •  Benjamin Tison / Adrien Maigret  They are still waiting for a pair from the qualifiers
  •  Yoan Boronad / Bastien Blanqué  They too will make their entrance against a qualifier
  •  Johan Peloux Marchini / Pierre Perez Le Tiec  will face  Hamza Berrahou / Bilal Duprat 

 Two women's matches are on the schedule. 

Two matches are scheduled for this Thursday in the women's competition.

Among them :

  •  Clara Mansart / Marie-Amélie Dardaine 
    against :
  •  Aina Etxebarria / Arlet Etxebarria Sanahuja 

But also:

  •  Juliette Sirgant / Elena Levenez 
    facing the Spanish team:
  •  Eva Vazquez Gracia / Carla Hernandez 

 Perrot / Huard and Piombo /  Taffaneli    lump sum 

Unfortunately, please note the following:

  •  Nathan Perrot / Sacha Huard de la Marre 

The two young French players will ultimately not play their scheduled match in the main draw. Jules Marie and Maxime Deloyer will therefore face a pair who qualified through the qualifying rounds.

Just like the package of  Tristan Piombo / Jean-Baptiste Taffaneli their opponents   Kilian Jordan / Valentin Wenger  They were supposed to play against the same pair in the first round, but they will now play against a pair that came through the qualifiers.

 A big day of padel in Marnes 

Thursday will therefore mark the true launch of the tournament with several very high-level matches already scheduled and many French pairs involved.

The full program then includes:

  • Friday: Round of 16 and Quarter-finals
  • Saturday: Semi-finals and finals

The whole thing will be broadcast live on  Padel MagTV .

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 !
