There will be no French in the semi-finals of the FIP Star in Dubai, Bergeron / Tison and Inzerillo / Britos losing today in the quarter-finals.

As we knew, Andrés Britos and Jérôme Inzerillo had not been spoiled in the draw with the pair made up of Jesus moya, which comes out of a victory at the FIP Star in Mijas, and Javier Barahona, a player who, let us remember, has already reached the quarter-finals of the Open du World Padel Tour !

Dominated in the first set, the Franco-Spanish pair managed to cast doubt on their opponents in the second set, but it was ultimately the favorites that prevailed: 6 / 2 7 / 5.

The ensuing match was full of twists and turns, as Johan Bergeron and Benjamin Tison led 6/1 6/5 against Redondo / Duran, top 80 players from World Padel Tour. The Spaniards finally won the second set in the tie-break, before driving the point home in the third set.

A encouraging defeat 6/1 6/7 2/6 for Benjamin and Johan who were there for their second tournament together. The champion of France, who obviously has his head already turned towards the CUPRA FIP Finals of Cagliari, stating on Facebook: "2 defeats in 1 week at the top 80 leading to the first set! It's up to us to learn from our mistakes to win these matches!"
