Beautiful day for the French on the  FIP Tour .  Dylan Guichard ,  Léa Godallier  et  Carla Toully  will be present at the semi-finals of their respective tournaments at  Porto  et  Alicante  . On the other hand,  Bastien Blanqué / Arthur Hugounenq  et  Camille Sireix  saw their journey end in the quarter-finals.

 Guichard turns the situation around and can now dream of the final 

After a controlled start to the tournament, with two victories without any real scares,  Dylan Guichard  et  Clement Geens  this time had to draw on their resources  FIP Silver Porto .

Facing the 8th seed in the quarter-finals  Victor Tur  et  Agustin Reca The Frenchman and the Belgian conceded the first set before completely turning the match around to win.  4/6 6/3 6/2 .

A victory achieved through sheer willpower that propels them into the final four.

In the semi-final, they will face the Portuguese  Pedro Araujo  et  Pedro Graca , the 7th seed. A match that seems well within their reach, especially since the Portuguese benefited from the early elimination of the 2nd seed to reach this stage of the competition. A great opportunity therefore presents itself to  Guichard  et  Geens who can legitimately aim for a place in the final.

 Godallier qualified after her opponents withdrew 

In the ladies,  Léa Godallier  and Argentina  Daiara Valenzuela  They are also continuing their great week in Portugal.

Facing  Alba Perez Moma  et  Alba Gallardo The Franco-Argentines were leading  7 / 6 3 / 2  when their opponents were forced to give up.

Without having to finish the match, Godallier and Valenzuela thus secured their ticket to the semi-finals.

They will face the 8th seed there.  Catherine Rose  et  Amee Gibson , authors of the tournament's feat after eliminating the 2nd seed. Here again, the draw has opened up considerably and qualification for the final appears more conceivable than ever.

 Touly's suspense is still at its peak. 

Au  FIP Bronze Alicante ,  Carla Toully  continues to demonstrate a remarkable mental strength.

Having already won her round of 16 match after three hard-fought sets, the Frenchwoman repeated the feat in the quarterfinals with her Spanish partner.  Xenia Clasca Vidiella .

Facing the number 5 seed  Natalia Molinilla  et  Sara Foguer Lapuente They prevailed after another battle:  4/6 6/3 7/5 .

In the semi-finals, they will face the 3rd seed.  Lorena Vano  et  Carmen Castillon On paper, Touly and Clasca seem to have the tools to reach another final on the FIP circuit.

 Blanqué and Hugounenq very close to achieving a remarkable feat 

Au  FIP Bronze Rovato ,  Bastien Blanqué  et  Arthur Hugounenq  may harbor some regrets.

Opposed to the seed 2  Jaume Romera  et  Adrian Naranjo Martinez The French long believed they could create an upset.

Having won the first round, they finally succumbed after a huge battle:  3/6 7/6 7/5 .

A frustrating defeat as the French team competed with one of the best pairs in the tournament, but also encouraging for the rest of the season.

 The end of the road for Sireix 

In the Netherlands, the adventure ends in the quarter-finals for  Camille Sireix  and his Dutch partner  Tess De Vocht .

After a convincing start, they were defeated.  6 / 3 6 / 2  by  Helena Wyckaert  et  Louisa Norton , which put an end to the Frenchwoman's journey at  FIP Bronze from Lelystad .

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 !
