Big posters today among the gentlemen

Among the men, we were treated to our little batch of surprises yesterday! First of all, the pair Fernandez Cano / Diestro showed that she was still so formidable. After taking out the number 2 seed, Javi Ruiz / Momo Gonzalez in the sixteenth (7/5 7/6), Fernandez and Diestro did it again with a 6/1 3/6 6/4 victory against Yanguas and Ramirez!

Today they will face the pair that eliminated seed number 8 (Lucho Capra / Ruben Rivera): Diego Fuster and Gonzalo Rubio. This very interesting meeting between two duos who are doing well in the FIP, will take place in 10h30:

In the lower part of the table, some outsiders also pulled out of the game. We of course first think of Arturo Coello and Rafa Mendez who released the number 1 Germani / Lijo seed. Unfortunately, this big match could not go to an end since Tito Allemandi, calf injury was forced to retire after both pairs had won a round.

Coello and Mendez will have a very interesting game to play, at 13hFacing Ramiro Moyano and José Rico, who dominated José Solano and Godo Diaz (6/2 7/6), a pair that had created a sensation in the previous round by taking out Javi Martinez and Agustin Gutierrez after a big fight (6/3 4/6 7 / 5).

Another very enticing quarter-final is the one between Javi leal and Alvaro Cepero, created a sensation by beating number 5 seed, Piñeiro / Barahona, 7/6 6/0 in straight sets! They will face today, at 10h, one of the tournament's favorite pairs: Juan Martin Diaz and Coki Nieto. JMD and Nieto left no chance to the tombs of Tison / Zapata, Jesus Moya Sos and Edu Alonso, swept 6/1 6/2.

Finally, the last quarter and not the least, the one opposing Lucas Campagnolo and Lucas Bergamini in Javi Garrido and Juan Cruz Belluati. A very big poster scheduled for 13:30 between the seeds 4 and 6, who impressed yesterday with clear wins. The Lucas inflicted a 6/2 6/1 on Sergio Alba and Francisco Gil, proof that they are in great shape!
