It took waiting for the right moment to see a French pair finally achieve their goal. Maxime Joris / Manuel Vives win the Singapore FIP Bronze At the end of a perfectly controlled tournament, the French pair, seeded 7th, seized an opportunity in a favorable draw without ever faltering.
Finally, Joris / Vives dominate the top 4 seed Tur / Reca in two solid sets: 6 / 4 6 / 4 A clear victory, reflecting their week, concluded without dropping a single set. The French players strung together clean, often fast-paced performances, demonstrating real control in key moments, as exemplified by a well-managed tie-break during the tournament.
Admittedly, the field wasn't the strongest in the history of the FIP Tour But one still had to show up. And on that point, Joris / Vives They left no room for doubt. This success rewards a positive momentum and allows the French pair to take a step forward.
For Maxime Joris , it's about the first victory on the FIP Tour , after three lost finals, including the last one at Dubai FIP Gold In March, alongside Figuerola. A long-awaited turning point for the Frenchman.
On the side of Manuel Vives This title has a special flavor. He was only competing for his third tournament of the season on the FIP circuit, after physical setbacks. Back to his best, he confirms it in style. This is his first victory under the new FIP Tour format , but already from his sixth title overall on this circuit. To find traces of his recent successes, one must go back to 2024 .
A busy week for the French, who are clearly (re)launching the machine.
