The main draw of the P1 in Tarragona started strongly , with suspenseful matches, decisive tie-breaks... and a Miguel Lamperti who has once again proven that he has the fire in his veins at the age of 46.
The pair Lamperti / Del Castillo qualified after a thriller against the wild cards Tonet Sans and Marc Quílez , in a match full of twists and turns that ended with a score of 6/3 3/6 7/6(7) . At 7/7 in the decisive tie-break of the third set, The whimsical Argentinian pulled off a magnificent shot , a retro counter smash into the net. A masterclass in composure and showmanship, as only Lamperti knows how.
They will face in the next round Maxi Sánchez and Xisco Gil .
The other results of the day:
- Rama Valenzuela / Fede Mouriño came back from a set down to beat Hernandez / Collado : 2/6 7/5 7/5. They will find Di Nenno / Augsburger in 16st.
- Pincho Fernández / Pablo Garcia left no chance to the local guests Arnaldos / Sanmartí : 6/0 6/3. Next challenge: Tolito Aguirre / Alex Chozas .
- The most closely fought match of the day saw the victory of Jose Rico / Arnau Ayats at the end of the suspense against Miguel and Nuno Deus : 3/6 7/6(2) 7/6(6). They will face Lebrón / Stupaczuk , with the return of the wolf after his injury.
- Valdés / Agustín Gutiérrez have eliminated Moya / Domínguez in two solid sets: 6/4 6/3. In the last 16, they will face Patiniotis / Alfonso .
- Finally Álvaro Cepero / Andrés Fernández Lancha , the new Spanish pair, signed a great victory against Belluati / Lijó : 7/5 6/4. As a reward? A date with Tapia / Coello .
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 !
