End of the adventure in Bandol for  Dylan Guichard  and its Portuguese partner  Antonio Luque , beaten this Saturday in  round of XNUMX  du  FIP Silver  by the pair from the qualifications  Alejandro Calvo Perez / Jose Pedro Montalban Martin . A defeat in two sets,  6 / 3 6 / 4 , facing a duo full of confidence.

Already yesterday, Guichard and Luque had given themselves a big scare for their entry into the competition. Opposed to the  French guest pair Robert / Garcia , the 12th seed had to draw on their resources to win by the skin of their teeth in  three sets (6/1 6/7 7/5) , after having been led  5/4 in the deciding set , on the edge of the precipice.

Facing  Calvo and Montalban , it didn't happen. More precise, more aggressive in key moments, the Spaniards mastered their subject and signed a solid victory, in line with their very good run started in the qualifications.

 Heading to the quarter-finals  so for the two outsiders, who are stringing together performances and will now challenge the  seeded 3 Alvaro Cepero / Eduardo Agustin Torre  for a place in the semi-finals.

A disappointment for  Guichard and Luque , who were hoping to grab a quarter.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
