This Friday, August 18 begins the now traditional Belfius Padel Summer Gala, an exhibition tournament supported by the World Padel Tour which is played on the beach of Knokke in Belgium.

For both men and girls, four professional players will compete against some of the best Belgian players.

Among the gentlemen, we find the showman Miguel Lamperti, the nugget Miguel Yanguas, the gunner Alex Arroyo and the Argentinian Agustin Gutiérrez, who is none other than the cousin of Sanyo.

Among the girls, world number 1 Paula Josemaria is present, as is the best Portuguese player Sofia Araujo, the best French player Alix Collombon. The Lyonnaise's partner, Victoria Iglesias, completes the picture.

This Friday from 17 p.m. the semi-finals will be played, opposing the professional pairs to the Belgian pairs.

Logically, we should be entitled to finals on Saturday Josemaria/Araujo vs Collombon/Iglesias and Lamperti/Yanguas vs Arroyo/Gutiérrez. Unless the locals create a surprise!
