The French pair suffered a tough defeat in the men's first round of the European Games. The Swedes Anton Andersson and Albin Alosson eliminated the number 3 seed in the table, the French pair composed of Thomas Leygue and Jérémy Scatena, in three sets: 7/6, 4/6, 6/3.

Still, the French seemed to have found a good rhythm in the second set by managing to play more aggressively. However, on these fast courts, the two powerful Swedish players managed to destabilize higher ranked opponents.

It is certainly a great disappointment for the members of the France team, which we hoped to see go further in the competition. As we announced yesterday, despite their status as the number 3 seed in the tournament, the French found themselves in a particularly difficult part of the table.

For Thomas Leygue, it will be necessary to remobilize because there is still the mixed table to be played. On the other hand, for Jérémy Scatena, it's over.
