We suspected it, the FIP Gold Lyon was to become a very popular tournament, just after the Paris Major, especially with the cancellation of the Sweden P2, which was to take place the same week. It is almost without surprise that we will find top players In Lyon !
Registration has barely opened and we already have one of the best pairs – in the rankings – on the circuit present: Alex Ruiz et Alex Arroyo. Both of these players are currently in the world top 20 and are, for the moment, seeded 1.
However, other very beautiful pairs will also make the trip! We will note the presence of:
- Francisco Guerrero (42) / Jairo Bautista (34)
- Daniel Windahl (62) / Javier Valdes (57)
- Denis Tomas Perino (56) / Victor Mena (73)
- Daniel Santigosa (98) / Miguel Lamperti (53)
With registrations just opening, we can certainly expect other highly ranked pairs to make the trip. We are thinking in particular of Momo Gonzalez et Eduardo Alonso who, during the holidays, played several tournaments together!
In the women's category, for the moment, no big headliner. However, the French vice-champions, Jessica Ginier et Carla Toully have confirmed their presence at FIP Gold Lyon and have registered!
It was her brother who one day told her to accompany him to a padel court, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the retransmission of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
