For 3 days, the Head Padel Open of the club du Mas in Perpignan offered a great show. The wind did not seem to tarnish the pleasure and the motivation of the players and spectators who came in large numbers. Above all: the Spanish pair Salines / Aitor Garcia.

The semi-final, let's remember, saw two explosive posters:

  • on the one hand Spanish 3 and French expatriate (Aitor Garcia / Salines against Roger Aromi / Haziza)
  • on the other, 4 French and not least, I named Scatena / Ritz against Moreau / Morillon

If we made the choice of livestreamer the 2e part (surely by patriotism), which ended on a victory of Scatena / Ritz 7-6 6-3, the second part was explosive but rather expeditious because Aitor Garcia and José Luis Lara Salines were intractable against Roger Aromi and Haziza since they won 6-1 6-1.

"Viva espana"

If the two Jérémys (Scat and Ritz) were impressive of solidity and efficiency throughout the tournament, in the final, they had sacred customers ...

Aitor Garcia and José Luis Lara Salines, two very talented players with a solid experience of the matches of the World Padel Tour.

Despite all the chauvinism and patriotism that the spectators could have shown in favor of our French, the domination and the Spanish control was so impressive that we could hear Jeremy Ritz shouting "I do not know what to do! "In the middle of the 2e set.

Slumped and frustrated with the sensation of missing their final, the record is unfortunately quite heavy: 6 / 2 win 6 / 3 of the Spanish, with the impression that the French had a tactic in mind but without success expected.

Who will manage to tame the terrible Spaniards when they are associated? We all had in mind the names of Bastien Blanque and Johan Bergeron, the young French playing almost every day players of the top 100 world.

But only the future will tell us ...

In the ladies, Léa Godallier / Mariane Vandaele wins the tournament against the local pair Vidal / Pibis.
