The latest Rio Branco FIP Rise finalists were beaten in two sets by Jorge Alfaro (159th in the FIP ranking) and Francisco Gomes (90th in the FIP ranking) on ​​the score of 7 / 6 6 / 4. Ludovic Cancel and Philemon Raichman failed to find the solution against the tournament's No. 2 seed, Raúl Marcos (39th in the FIP ranking) and Javier Garcia (51st in the FIP ranking), suffering a logical defeat in two sets 6/1 7/5.

Maxime Moreau and his Spanish teammate Joaquime Florensa Hernandez managed to advance to the second round after their 6/2 6/4 victory over Spaniards Antolin Solla and Caton Calvo. In the second round, the Franco-Spanish pair fell to the executioners of Cancel and Raichman.
