25% success rate on the French side

There were four French players taking part in the main draw of the FIP Platinum MexicoThe first to hit the track was Fantine Botella, accompanied by Maria Fernanda Espinosa Gonzalez. Coming from the qualifications, the Franco-Mexican pair offered themselves a first round in the highest tournament category of the FIP. However, the first match was not easy since they faced Jana Montes Cabruja (78) et Alba Gallardo (61). Logical defeat, but without having been unworthy of the qualified pair, in two sets: 6 / 3 6 / 4.

After this match, we were able to witness the qualification for the second round of Carla Toully et Anna Dominguez, recent finalists of the FIP Star Beau Plan in MauritiusThey had a rather favorable draw against two qualifiers: Adriana Corona (163) et Ivana Perches Arredondo (365). In a match that was all about control, they had imposed themselves 7 / 5 6 / 3.

The last glances turned towards Julien Seurin et Maxime Moreau, faced with Victor Ruiz et Javi Ruiz (TS6). The French were far from having a bad performance and tried everything to, why not, achieve the feat in Mexico. In each set, unfortunately, small details always tipped the balance in the Spaniards, who triumphed in two sets: 6 / 3 6 / 4.

It was her brother who one day told her to accompany him to a padel court, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the retransmission of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
