Chingotto and Galan will be in the Bordeaux P2 semi-finals after their lackluster 7/5 7/5 victory over Cardonna/Augsburger. They will face Chingotto's former teammates, Argentinians Juan Tello and Martin Di Nenno.
A victory without forcing
The first set was won by Chingalan 7/5 after a break at the best of times, at 6/5 on Augsburger's serve. And in the second set... exactly the same scenario, a break at 6/5 on Léo's serve, and a place in the semi-finals against Tello/Di Nenno, El Raton's two former teammates.
It's OK for Tello and Di Nenno
After miraculously coming through in the round of 6 against Javier Barahona and Javier Garcia, after a dazzling comeback that ended with a 0/7 victory in the third set, the Argentinians were able to overcome the Spanish pair Esbri/Diestro, 6/6 2/XNUMX.
After a real battle in the first set and a well-controlled tie-break, they then broke Juanlu Esbri and José Diestro in the second set by taking their serve one after the other before concluding on Di Nenno's serve, 6/2.
A qualification, but questions
A semi-final qualification, certainly, but the Tello/Di Nenno pairing is still far from the expected level. Two world-class players who have not yet reached their full potential, but who are nevertheless progressing, slowly but surely.
It will be a different story tomorrow against Chingalan, and they will absolutely have to raise their game if they want to reach their first final in a major tournament.
