Difficult end of the day for the Tricolores at  FIP Platinum Lyon , where the majority of French representatives fell in the first round. Only  Léa Godallier , associated with  Giorgia Marchetti , manages to pull off a masterclass, qualifying his pair for the round of 16 after a solid performance.

 Godallier and Marchetti secure their rank 

They were favorites, and they lived up to their status.  Giorgia Marchetti and Léa Godallier  delivered a serious performance against  Dominguez  et  Martínez , imposing  6 / 1 6 / 3 .
The Franco-Italian pair confirms its good momentum after their qualification last week for the main draw of the  Milan P1 .
Tomorrow, they will try to continue their journey against a very big challenge: the  seed n ° 6 ,  Jessica Castello / Lorena Rufo .

 Boronad and Fonteny close to the feat 

Young people  Yoan Boronad  et  Timeo Fonteny , beneficiaries of a wildcard, impressed despite the defeat against  Javi Garrido  (20th in the world) and  Diego Gil .
After losing the first set in a tie-break and winning the second, the French finally gave in  7/6 5/7 6/0 .
An encouraging performance against a pair of  world top , which once again proves the potential of the French duo.

 Bergeron and Blanqué still in difficulty 

Third consecutive defeat in the first round of an international tournament for  Johan Bergeron  et  Bastien Blanqué , beaten  6 / 4 7 / 6  by  Adrián Ronco López / Luis Oliver Artigas , from the qualifications.
A frustrating match, with some good sequences but also some costly slumps, especially in key moments.
The French were leading  4/0 in the second set tie-break  before collapsing, letting slip a great opportunity to reach the last sixteen.

 Touly and Peralta pass very close 

Another frustrating scenario for  Carla Toully  et  Lucia Peralta , beaten  6 / 4 7 / 6  by  Carolina Navarro Björk / Monica Gómez Rivas .
The Franco-Spanish team had a break in the first set and set points in the second, but they were unable to conclude.
A defeat that leaves regrets, as qualification seemed within reach.

 Barla and Lambert dominated but growing 

Finally, the young pair  Kimy Barla / Lou Lambert Agosti , wildcard, could do nothing against the  seed n ° 2  composed of Alejandra Alonso  et  Lucia Sainz , two players in the world's top 20.
A failure  6 / 1 6 / 1 , logical given the opponent's level, but a valuable experience for the two French women who are discovering the very high international level.

 Four French pairs in the last 16 tomorrow 

France will therefore count  4 pairs in the 8th final  What did you eat?

  •  Adrien Maigret / Olivier Guy de Chamisso 
  •  Manuel Vives / Dylan Guichard 
  •  Léa Godallier / Giorgia Marchetti 
  •  Bahurel / Pothier 
Benjamin Dupouy

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 !
