It's a special moment for Cyril Hanouna: he was waiting so much for this moment when he could say "jI qualified on a main draw of a P2000 without going through the Wild Card box“. A year almost to the day, he had already almost succeeded, already at the Mas club.

But this time, it's a bit the opposite that happened compared to 2022, since he succeeds in his first match to save 2 match points and completes this 3rd and final group match with a victory. in the super tie-break (6/4 6/7 1/0).

Opposite, Harold Bernard and Damien Fave have tried everything. Well-known players on the circuit. Well-established top 100 players. They tried to avoid Spaniard Teo Zapata at all costs. But the former partner of Benjamin Tison has the resource. He managed a match that was also exceptional. Capable of covering 80% of the field, taking many (paying) risks, he ended up disgusting the opponents.

But we have to come back to Cyril Hanouna, because he is the player who touches the most balls in a match and even more in a match like this. How to say then that he does not deserve this victory and access to the main draw of a P2000 of a player who touches so many balls in a game? (and no matter what partner he may have)

The public as always was there to support him. Many were the fans of the TPMP host to exult with joy after this superb qualifying run.

Tomorrow, another big match awaits them in 16th against left-hander Mathieu Armagnac and Alexandre Toppin at the Mas club. “It would be an incredible feat to beat them. But first we're going to savor this wonderful moment, find a room for tonight, because I couldn't even believe it, and get ready with Teo.".
