Julien Seurin and Manuel Vives continue their adventure in South America. After reaching the semi-finals of Fip Star de Nomos in Brazil, the French qualified for the final of the Fip Rise Rio Branco in Uruguay.

A first final on a FIP Rise

For the first time, Man Vives and Julien Seurin reach the final of a Fip Rise. Since the start of the tournament, the French pair has made a strong impression. In the round of XNUMX, Man and Julien easily disposed of the Sequeira/Velga Trintade pair with a score of 6/1 6/0. Later in the evening, they confirmed their domination by imposing themselves with authority on the score of 6 / 4 6 / 2 in the quarter-finals.

This Sunday, the tricolors faced the number 3 seed of the Fip Rise of Rio Branco, composed of Leonel Romano (224th FIP) and Carlos Luna (228th FIP), in order to secure their place in the final of the tournament.

Once again, Man Vives and Julien Seurin shone. The tricolor pair won in two sets with a score of 6/2 6/1 against Ecuadorian and Argentinian players. Julien and Manuel will therefore have the opportunity to take their revenge on the Flores brothers, who had dominated them in two rounds during the previous tournament at the Fip Star de Nomos 6 / 4 6 / 4.

Man Vives: “We're hungry! We're gonna give everything"

Julien Seurin : “It was very important for us to stay focused on our service game, it's one of our strengths. We knew how to be aggressive on the fly and we were effective. We are excited to be able to have a rematch against the Flores brothers. The conditions are a bit better here and we hope to play a better game against them.”

Man Vives "It's a first FIP ​​final for us, it's great. We are hungry, we will try to win this first FIP ​​Rise final, we will give everything”.

As a reminder Man Vives has already won the FIP Promotion of Kaunas alongside Dylan Guichard last February.
