The first day was complicated for the  French  in Serbia, but two French female duos continue the adventure in  FIP Silver Belgrade . After the eliminations in the men's table and the defeat of Dardaine / Marcarie, all hopes now rest on  Louise Bahurel / Ivet Val Lopez  et  Camille Sireix / Mélissa Martin .

Bahurel / Lopez face the 4th seed

Perfect in the first round with a success  6 / 1 6 / 1  against Leinus / Ligotti,  Bahurel and Lopez  will have to raise their level even further to hope to make a hit. Their opponent, the pair  Alba Gallardo / Sandra Bellver , seeded 4, has already experienced difficulties in her opening match, conceding a set. An opportunity to seize for the Frenchwoman and the Spaniard, especially since Bellver, former partner of  Léa Godallier , remains on three consecutive defeats in tournament qualifications  Premier Padel  (Bordeaux, Malaga, Tarragona). Match scheduled for  third rotation of 11 a.m. on court 3 .

Sireix / Martin face the second seed

Winners of their first match  6 / 4 6 / 4  facing Tokumoto / Vasileva,  Camille Sireix and Mélissa Martin  attack big in the round of 2: the second seed  Julieta Bidahorria / Nika Sluzhiteleva . If the Russian Sluzhiteleva, titled at the  FIP Bronze Phuket , remains a player more accustomed to minor tournaments, the Argentinian Bidahorria is confident this season, with already two titles in  FIP Silver  and final tables in  Premier Padel For the French, the key could be to target their Russian partner. A challenge met, but not impossible. Match scheduled for  third rotation of 11 a.m. on center court .

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 !
