Sergio Alba / Francisco Gil and José Solano / Jaime Menendez created a sensation this morning during the round of XNUMX of the Alicante Open of the World Padel Tour !

Defeated yesterday in the final of previa, José Solano and Jaime Menendez had had luck in the “lucky losers” draw, being part of the two teams that made it into the final table. And we can say that they have seized this chance fully, the two young players dominating veterans Martin Sanchez Piñeiro and Nacho Gadea in an epic match.

The two young Spaniards were not put down by the loss of the first set and returned to the coal, to win in the end 4/6 6/3 6/3. A very good performance which allows them for the first time to return to the eighth, where they will face tomorrow Coki Nieto and Javi Rico, who disposed of Coello / Ramirez in straight sets 7/5 6/1.

The other big performance of the day is due to Sergio Alba and Francisco Gil. After their quarter in Barcelona, the players coached by Adrian Caviglia show they are very fit with this victory 6 / 1 6 / 4 face Lamperti / Bergamini. They have a gala match tomorrow, against Stupaczuk / Gutierrez.

These two surprises are proof that some pairs of previa have more than their place in the final table of the WPT Open!
