Iñigo Jofre and Alejandro Arroyo create a sensation in the round of 1 of Buenos Aires PXNUMX, in Argentina, by winning in three sets against the number 4 seed in the tournament, Miguel Yanguas / Jorge Nieto Ruiz : 6/7, 6/2, 6/4.

For the pair Jofre / Arroyo, this is an excellent performance, especially since Jofre currently ranks 38th in the worldThe gap in the standings between the two teams makes this victory all the more significant, especially in terms of ranking points. We have to go back to Kuwait City Premier Padel P1, last November, to find the trace of a quarter-final in a tournament of this importance for Jofre.

Statistics The sensation of the day in Buenos Aires: Jofre / Arroyo bring down Yanguas / Nieto

On the other hand, for Yanguas / Nieto, the disappointment is great. The Spanish pair are going through a difficult South American tour, after a first defeat in the last sixteen at Asuncion P2. A striking contrast with the regularity displayed in previous months. Before this negative series, Grandson had not been eliminated at this stage since Genoa P2 in June 2024, and Yanguas since Valladolid P2 in September 2024. The return to Europe should do them the greatest good.

In the quarterfinals, Jofre and Arroyo will face a new major challenge : to confront Paquito Navarro and Lucas Bergamini.
