Big first day for this stage of the National Padel Very special cup at 4PADEL Bordeaux. A P1000 men's stage where the Parisian pair Adrien Maigret / Benjamain Tison almost got caught in the quarter-final.

In front of the local pair Grué / Castaing, the vice-champions of France of padel 2018 had to be done to avoid a super random tie-break. Tison / Maigret even managed to save 3 set points in the second and ended up winning in the 7/5 tie-break.

The other big semi-final expected was of course the Leygue / Lerustre pair against De Barbeyrac / Armagnac. We knew that the match was going very tight. But Thomas Leygue makes a first ghost set. The Armagnac / De Barbeyrac pair therefore accepts the offering without forcing too much.

The match actually starts in the second set. Exchanges become longer, mistakes become less frequent. And it is rather Laurent de Barbeyrac who at the end of the match will suffer the bandeja by Thomas Leygue. Lerustre / Leygue comes back to 1 set everywhere.

But in the 3e set, Armagnac / De Barbeyrac serves the match. The exchanges are tense. Under pressure, the big mistakes of the first set resurface for the pair Lerustre / Leygue. Victory of Armagnac / De Barbeyrac in 3 sets.

See you tomorrow at 11h, for the 2 semifinals. The final is scheduled at 14h30.
