New update of  FIP ranking And once again, the results are overwhelmingly positive for the French athletes. Their performances on the international circuit are starting to pay off, with several significant improvements in both the men's and women's categories.

 Three French players in the world's top 120 

This is the big news of the week: France now places  three players in the world's top 120 .

  •  Dylan Guichard  gains 4 places and climbs to  114th world rank .
  •  Johan Bergeron Rewarded for his excellent performance at the FIP Silver Espoo, he climbed 5 places and moved up  118th in the world .
  •  Bastien Blanqué  also progresses by 4 positions to reach the  119th place .

A good density which confirms the rise of French padel internationally.

 Leygue continues his climb up the ladder 

The momentum is also very positive for  Thomas Leygue With 6 places gained, he rejoins the  world top 150 (149th)  and continues its progress after returning to form.

Behind :

  •  Julien Seurin  gains 4 places (165th).
  •  Timeo Fonteny , in great form after his strong performance at Espoo, climbs 6 places and reaches the  170th place in the world .
  •  Yoan Boronad  moved up one place (190th).
  •  Nicolas Rouanet  signs a great progression with  +8 places  (245e).

 The fall of Joris 

The only major notable decrease:  Maxime Joris , which loses 54 places and drops out of the top 200 (243rd).

A decline primarily linked to the loss of  90 FIP points  earned last year at  FIP Gold Dubai where he had reached the final. Less present on the circuit in recent months, he is logically paying the price for this decline.

 For the women: green almost everywhere 

The women's ranking also remains generally positive.

  •  Alix Collombon  drops 2 places (35th).
  •  Léa Godallier  maintains itself at the  59th place in the world .
  •  Carla Toully  drops 2 places (83rd).
  •  Louise Bahurel  drops 4 places (119th).

Behind them, the trend is upward:

  •  Melissa Martin  gains 4 places and reaches the  143th place in the world .
  • Camille Sireix, Steffi Merah, Marie-Amélie Dardaine, Lucile Pothier, Charlotte Soubrié and Jessica Ginier all move up one place.

An encouraging dynamic for French women's padel.

 More points to be won this week 

The good news is that opportunities are available immediately. The French will be hired.

  • on the  Premier Padel from Gijón ,
  • au  FIP Bronze Uten ,
  • au  FIP Bronze Alexandria ,
  • and especially to the  FIP Gold Ponta Delgada , the big event of the week.

These are all opportunities to accumulate valuable FIP points and continue this great collective progress.

The momentum is there. Now we just need to extend it on the field.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
