Gemma Triay hits a back shot in the final of the Masters final in Barcelona, December 18, 2022.
We are used to seeing Juan Lebron or Ale Galan make incredible shots, sometimes in the back, sometimes between the legs. But the girls are not left behind among the best players in the world. The proof, the mind blowing blow banged by Gemma Triay during the final of the Barcelona Master Final.
It happens at 1-1 in the first set, during an interminable point: the player from Menorca is drawn towards the net following a smash to the grid struck by Ariana Sanchez; too advanced, she is exposed to a volley from Paula Josemaria which should overtake her 99 times out of 100. But not this time: Gemma improvises a shot out of nowhere, rotating her body in order to hit the ball in his back. At the moment of impact, she does not look at her opponents, but faces her partner Alejandra Salazar.
Unfortunately, for the new world No. 1, this blow is not enough to surprise her opponents and it is finally Gemma who commits a fault, while Ari Sanchez ends up on the ground. But such a blow would almost deserve that we change the rules so that it is worth a point of office. We let you judge for yourself:
