During the grand annual women's tennis trophy ceremony, Alix Collombon and Jessica Ginier were awarded the SmartTrade Prize for the women's padel team of the year 2018. This trophy rewards a perfect season for the French team.

Facing our French women, big names in French tennis were present, starting with the event's patron Amélie Mauresmo. Bernard Giudicelli also came to deliver a message on the development of women's tennis in France. (And padel, of course 🙂

Currently, 1ère French pair, Alix and Jess managed to win all the ladies events in France to which they participated.

Alix Collombon achieves the feat of reaching in one year, the top 30 world alongside his partner Sarah Pujals.

The French pair is building a sacred list:

  • 3rd place in the 2017 European Padel Championships
  • 5th place in the 2018 World Padel Championships
  • 2018 French Padel Champion

And all this in 2 years of padel…
