Ferrandez / Inzerillo and Sorel / Invernon win the PACA regional phases counting for the French championships of Padel 2019 which took place at Country Padel Club and WinWin Padel de l'Arbois.
Once is not customary, we will begin with the gentlemen.
For Jérôme Ferrandez and Jérôme Inzerillo, this is an indisputable victory since the pair was located in this lower part of the table including the pair Jérémy Ritz and Maxime Moreau. A victory that could weigh heavily in view of the selections for the European Championships next November.
The PACA league is one of the most up-and-coming French regions with a dozen players at the gates of the French selection. And the Ferrandez / Inzerillo pair beat them all. That is to say.
The Ferrandez / Inzerillo pair are two very dangerous players who do not play all French tournaments, but who show each time that they can be counted on. And above all, Jérôme Ferrandez has been realizing for several weeks, a series of very big matches with 3 different partners. He's the fit man of the moment. Was he buried too early on the track? In any case, the answer is clear: " I'm here ! »
We announced it a few days ago, the probable quarter between Ritz / Moreau and Ferrandez / Inzerillo was going to be very hot! And this was the case with this victory in 3 sets of the Ferrandez / Inzerillo pair. Remember, the two players were not part of the course of the Team of France enlarged last May ...
Behind it was necessary to confirm against the dangerous pair Pequery / Corbelli. And especially transform the test in the final.
Just in the final, she faced unsurprisingly the pair Justin Lopes / Pier Gauthier at the top of the table, 2 players potentially selectable by the captain of the team of France, Alexis Salles.
And once again, the Ferrandez / Inzerillo pair will win this match which counts double. A win in 2 sets against Lopes / Gauthier.
Ritz / Moreau side, it is necessarily the gray mine. If individually, they are part of the best French players, together magic does not work for now.
In the ladies, the Sorel / Invernon pair also wins a final that counts double in this league PACA. The pair Casanova / Lovera has certainly managed to reach the final of these regional phases, but this defeat in the final, especially for Audrey Casanova could cost him dear if the pair does not achieve very quickly some results against the best French pairs.
We are obviously still far from the final stages of the 2019 French padel championships next September. But we can conclude on one thing: The competition among the women, as among the men, will be tough and long. Who will win this marathon?
