As from the beginning of Greenweez Paris Premier Padel Major, our partner Greenweez offers us the highlight of the day.
Yesterday, Ale Galan was honored with his crazy reflex. Today, the number 1 is also present in this hot moment of the day, for a very different gesture.
Indeed, wanting to close the first round with a powerful smash, the Madrid player sent a ball at full speed into the temple of Fernando Belasteguin. You can review the pictures HERE.
Obviously it is a totally involuntary blow, the two players clap each other directly in the hand, Galan apologizing immediately.
Bela, who will certainly have a nice bruise tomorrow, is doing pretty well despite everything. Indeed, if the Argentinian did not seem too on his plate during the second set, he can consider himself lucky not to have taken this bullet in the eye, which could have had much heavier consequences…
The moral of this story is that you have to be very careful when a player very close to the net is about to spike the padel !
