The quarter-finals of  FIP Silver Höganäs  did not go well for the French representatives in the men's competition. On the other hand,  Alix Collombon  et  Ksenia Sharifova  continue their week and qualify for the final four of the Swedish tournament.

 Joris and Robert stopped by the number 2 seed 

After a very successful run, notably marked by a victory against the 6th seed,  Maxime Joris  et  Jeremy Robert  hoped to continue their adventure.

Opposed to the Spanish  Francisco Gil  et  Manuel Castaño Salguero As the tournament's second seeds, the French put up a good fight, particularly in the first set.

Despite a very close first set, they ultimately lost.  7 / 6 6 / 3  facing a pair more experienced at this level of competition.

A logical but encouraging elimination for Joris and Robert, who had a very solid week.

 Bergeron and Fonteny fall in the quarter-finals 

On their side,  Johan Bergeron  et  Timeo Fonteny  failed to overcome the quarter-final hurdle.

The French pair, seeded 5th, faced the Spanish team.  Marc Sintes Villalonga  et  David Santiagosa Sastre , 3th seeded.

Facing a particularly strong team, the French lost in two sets  6 / 3 6 / 4 .

 Collombon and Sharifova in demonstration 

The good news for France came from the women's draw.

For their second tournament together,  Alix Collombon  et  Ksenia Sharifova  continue to impress. Opposed to  Julia Isabella Wiese  et  Martina Minetti The French and Russian women left no chance for their opponents.

A swift victory  6 / 1 6 / 1 , controlled from start to finish, which allowed them to reach the semi-finals without having to draw on their reserves.

 A big test in the semi-final 

However, the challenge will be greater in the final four.

For a place in the final,  Collombon and Sharifova  will find the  seeded 3 , composed of the Spanish  Teresa Navarro Lopez-Barajas  and Argentina  Virginia Riera .

A real test against a pair accustomed to big events and who so far represent the toughest obstacle of the tournament for the Frenchwoman and her partner.

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 !
