Alix Collombon (29) and his partner Araceli Martinez (30) bow out in the round of XNUMX of the Dubai Premier Padel P1 in two sets, after a fight of more than 2h36 face Lucia Sainz (10) et Paty Llaguno (13), seeded number 6. The match ended with the score of 7 / 6 6 / 4.

The pair Franco-Spanish may have some regrets, since they got the break in the first set, then a double break in the second to lead 4/0. Collombon and Martinez took the lead in both sets but were caught each time by Sainz and Llaguno who were able to be present in the important points. The match, marked by long rallies, lasted more than 2h30 for only two sets. At the end of the match, fatigue was felt on both sides, but Sainz and Llaguno were able to stay stronger. For their part, Collombon and Martinez made several errors, including lobs that were too short, allowing the Spanish to turn the situation around and secure victory.

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 !
