What a night! The men managed to get past Uruguay and thus allow the French team to reach the semi-finals of the World Padel Nations Championships in Paraguay.

An almost perfect night, since our French did not manage to beat the Portuguese. An 2 / 1 defeat, with the victory of Jessica Ginier / Alix Collombon on the pair 3 Portuguese. Mai Vo / Audrey Casanova and Laure Clergue / Léa Godallier will have to bow to No. 1 and No. 2 respectively. There was a lot of frustration among the players because there might be something to do in this quarter-final.

In the men's competition, it is the reigning French padel champions, Blanqué / Bergeron, who will start against Portugal. Unfortunately, the French will not manage to convert their 5 match points in the 2e set and will eventually lose the match, 7 / 6 in the 3e match with let us note it, in the opposing ranks a Sergio Ramos (player of World Padel Tour) exceptional.

Behind Tison / Maigret then Scatena / Haziza reassure and ensure their match to bring back the two points which deliver the French team propelling them towards a semi-final against Argentina in the arena of the padel club l'Aventura.

Tomorrow's schedule:

  • For girls: France vs Chile at noon
  • For the boys: France vs Argentina at 17 p.m.
