What a day at the Padelpro Cup in Sophia… We had the right among the men to completely crazy matches which ended with the Haziza / Scatena vs Tison / Maigret poster of the day.

The climb of Haziza / Scatena

4 players from the French padel team on the court in the quarter-finals. The Parisian pair Tison / Maigret got off to a very good start by quickly leading 1/4 in the first set.

But the southerners finally returned to their match and began to counter the offensive game of the Parisians.

An incredible remount of the pair Haziza / Scatena who succeeds to chain 8 games of suites thus winning the first set 7 / 5. The second set is complicated. There is tension on the ground. Parisians are frustrated by their game. It is true that they took a big morale shot in the first set and they never managed to get back in the game.

What about the performance of Jeremy Scatena and Robin Haziza. Each in their own way, they managed an exceptional match. They are clearly the favorites of the tournament.

Moreau / Acevedo was very hot

The Franco-Mexican pair, Moreau / Acevedo was also very hot! While she seemed a tone above the Ritz / Lopes pair, the latter pulled off a superb match. Jérémy Ritz shows once again that on the left he is very capable and we would like to see him in this position as he shows very interesting dispositions.

Justin Lopes also proved that he could be counted on in the French top 10. Alexis Salles and Patrick Fouquet, the selectors of the French padel team, saw some great padel.

Groll / Garcia: the revelation of the tournament

We will not return to the Alsatian pair. But she showed that she could become a very dangerous pair in the coming months even if facing the best, there is still a lot.

Garcia / Groll caused a sensation at the PadelProCup

No surprises in the ladies

Due to the padel rankings, we will certainly have the final before time in the women's tournament with Laura Clergue / Audrey Casanova who will face Léa Godallier / Jessica Ginier. The other semi-final will see Kristina Clément / Alexia Dechaume facing Géraldine Sorel / Mélissa Martin.
