The fourth and penultimate stage of Major Tour 2025 will be held from 9 12 in October au Bertransart Sports Center, recently renovated. A few days before the kick-off, it is already a success: the men's and women's tables are full.
A dense and balanced masculine painting
The level of play promises to be high in the men's competition, with several experienced duos entering the qualifiers. Among them, the locals Alex Valentin and Noa Bazin, both coaches of the center, will be benchmarks. The young Gabriel Fontaine, beneficiary of a wild card, will be associated with Julian Zapata, while the power of Jimmy Barbieux, associated to Eliott Verraghen, could weigh in the exchanges. The pair Evert Verbesselt / Ian Otzipka completes a particularly homogeneous picture.
In the main draw, the pair Arnaud Meessen / Philémon Raichman, seeded No. 1, will seek to confirm its status. The duo Jeremy Gala / Maxime Deloyer, reformed for the occasion, should constitute a serious adversary. Behind them, Gilles Stas / Maxime De Roose et Gil Tremouroux / François Azzola will try to pull off a very competitive upper division. At the bottom of the table, Guillaume Watteeuw / Matthieu Lambert will rely on their complementarity, while Robin Semal / Louis Guibert will hope to create a surprise.
In the women's category, a very open field
The women's field also looks uncertain. The recent finalists Mitchell / Sepul will have to go through the qualifications, where they will notably meet Emmy Soegito, a young player on the rise, accompanied by Céline Lazzerini.
Other expected opposition: Loan Basile, just back from the Junior World Championships, will team up with Mathilde Vanderhauwaert to face Evy Bauwens / Lylou Brulée, a regular duo on the circuit. In a tough group, Laetitia Patriarche / Zoé Moucheron appear as the logical favorites.
In the main draw, the pair Noémi Sermant / Nina Lammens will have to be wary of the duo Linn Poels / Lynn Vanhoof, recently titled at Wel Padel. Other pairs could also be illustrated, such as Zoe Van Deynse / Babette De Decker or, Joke Leloux / Charlotte Antkowiak, capable of shaking up the hierarchy.
Bertransart, a modernized and strategic center
Newly renovated, the Bertransart Sports Center now offers six padel courts in a modern setting, dominated by red and black tones. Located in the east of Hainaut, the site benefits from a central location to attract players from all over the country.
After steps to Ath, Brussels and Liège, Major Tour thus continues its journey towards Charleroi, before concluding his season at La Louviere.
Last stop in La Louvière in November
La final stage of the Major Tour 2025 will be held from 13th and the 16th of November au Wolf Padel La Louvière Park.
Padel enthusiasts will be able to attend all matches for free, from Thursday to Sunday, in a friendly atmosphere that has characterized the circuit since its launch.
