The young French pair composed of  Timeo Fonteny  ( 225th in the world ), And  Yoan Boronad  ( 261e ), has had a huge run at  FIP Silver Andalusia . After their victory in  eighth finals  against the Spanish  Diego Garcia  (67e) and  Francisco Cabeza  (57th), the two Tricolores have just reached a new milestone by winning in  quarterfinal .

A new prestigious victory

Facing the Spanish  Nacho Moragues Moltò  et  Marc Sintes Villalonga , who defeated the third seed  Teodoro Zapata / Jose Jimenez Casas , Fonteny and Boronad have released a  full match , winning in two sets:  6 / 4 7 / 5 A solid victory for the French, who continue to surprise in Spain.

This success is all the more remarkable as Moragues Moltò and Sintes Villalonga had just beaten the pair  Zapata / Jimenez , well established on the circuit. In the match, the French were able to demonstrate great solidity with 6 gold points won out of 6.

A big journey

In the eighth round, Fonteny and Boronad had already created a sensation by eliminating the number 5 seed,  Diego Garcia  (67e) and  Francisco Cabeza  (57th), on the score of  7 / 5 6 / 3 These two Spaniards, aged 19 and 17 respectively, had recently made headlines by winning the  Gijón Premier Padel P2  and the  FIP Bronze Torchio  in Caen, before reaching the semi-finals of the  FIP Silver BMW Marmotor . Today another great victory against  Nacho Moragues Moltò  et  Marc Sintes Villalonga .

For Yoan Boronad, this quarter-final victory is a great moment:
“This morning, we're playing two players who beat Zapata and his partner yesterday. Two big players, and we're really playing one of our biggest matches together with Timéo, if not the biggest. We won 6/4 7/5, and still won.  6 gold points out of 6 . So we were very solid in the important moments. We are very happy!”

The young player also underlines the strength of his partner in these particular conditions:
“The conditions are very favorable for balls that go out. Timéo's smash is still a big weapon. Yesterday, we played a great match, both of us solid, and we played well. We'll try to get more this afternoon against Barahona and Garcia, even if we know it's going to be very tough, but we believe in it.”

A gala semi-final

To continue their journey, the two young Frenchmen will now have to face the second seed:  Javi garcia  (30e) and  Javi Barahona  (25th). A match that promises to be particularly difficult for the Blues, but after their previous performances and their ability to stay  solid in key moments , they can hope to create the feat.

The match is scheduled  not before 18 p.m. .

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 !
