It's official, Team France Gentlemen obtains its best result in a world by obtaining the 4th place at the world championships of padel from Paraguay.

Faced with Brazil, our French delivered a padel that we did not even suspect. Facing players from World Padel Tour, Jérémy Scatena / Robin Haziza, in this first match, showed that it was a pair that still had a very bright future ahead. It's even "an old couple"Tells us Robin Haziza,"with ups and downs".

Scatena / Haziza made equal play

Today, the couple Haziza / Scatena has done better than high, the French pair has treated the world summit face Jardim / Lima. 2 players in the world's top.

What to say about Pablo Lima that we saw in the hard on the diagonal against Robin Haziza alias “the paw of the expert“…. He scratched but Pablo Lima, stung, had to deploy to repel the French assaults.

What to say about Jérémy Scatena? We felt anxious from the beginning of the competition. And little by little with the help of his partner and coach Alexis Salles, confidence has returned. "Big games, that's what I like". These big games have come and the Scatena Show has done the rest on and off the track.

For 3 games, the smashes have returned, the Jérémy Scatena of the great days has hit, hit very hard. Marcelo Jardim struggled in his diagonal today. Despite all the heart put in the battle, the Brazilian pair won in 2 sets 7/5 6/4. What a battle!

Tison / Maigret: What a treat!

In the second match, the Parisians amazed, surprised, amazed their world. We knew they were dangerous, but at this point? Remember, Benjamin Tison and Adrien Maigret do not play on the professional circuit and yet they have shown an authority that surprised Brazil. The Brazilian audience had to sing very loudly but against France, it did not fold. The French tidal wave made it possible to push the limits of the Tison / Maigret pair.

At the start of the second set, the head Benjamin Tison hit the back window. Shaken, it does not capsize. Pushed by his partner Adrien Maigret, they set out again to attack our Brazilians. Brazil did not expect this. For sure.

Our French are fighting because they want to offer Bastien Blanqué and Johan Bergeron, the reigning French champions, the possibility of bringing home 3rd place. But Brazilians are experts in the art of padel and despite the physical sacrifices (including the open package to save herself for the World of Nations) of Tison / Maigret, she must bow in 3 sets.

France at the beginning of a great history

One could read a great disappointment at Adrien Maigert and Benjamin Tison while they were at the end of themselves.

There is nothing to be ashamed of these defeats. This 3e place is only a beginning.

The France team showed the world padel, that from now on we will have to count on it in the years to come because it has the mentality, the courage and the talent to go very far.

She says it will take a generation to do something great. But she has already done it by becoming the 4e nation nation.

Congratulations to Team France and thank you for giving us so much.

Team France will leave traces in Paraguay
