The last Group C game was between the senior women's team from France and the team from the Netherlands. A match that had to be played seriously because it was important to finish at the top of the group in order to remain seeded for the final table.

It was under the strong heat of Alicante that the ladies achieved a clear round this afternoon: 3-0.

Despite the good resistance of the Dutch, the French team used the strategy of “par 3”, “par 4” and “par queen” to win. Emmelien Lambregts associated with Géraldine Sorel won the match 6-3, 6-3. Amélie Détriviere and Julie Pecastaing win 6-4, 6-3. And Catherine Lalanne and Alex Fouquet valiantly conclude this meeting in 3 sets.

The French will therefore face the British tomorrow in the quarter-finals.

Tonight, the French pairs also participated in the “open” tournament. Easy victories for the Lambregts/Sorel pairs (6-1, 6-0) against a Portuguese pair, Lalanne/Dechaume (6-1, 6-1) against a Belgian pair, and Détriviere/Pecastaing (6-1, 6- 0) against another Portuguese pair.

However, the Fouquet/Maignien pair was eliminated from the “open” tournament by losing 7-5 in the third set.
