Another busy week for the French on the  FIP Tour , with French athletes competing on  three international tournaments  : the  FIP Bronze Houten in the Netherlands ,  FIP Silver Abidjan  in Ivory Coast and especially the  FIP Gold Almaty  in Kazakhstan, the biggest event of the week.

 FIP Bronze Houten: strong French presence in the men's category 

This is clearly the tournament where we will find the most French players this week.

To  Netherlands Several tricolor or semi-tricolor pairs will try to achieve a good run in a rather open draw.

Among the duos to watch are:

  •  Johan Bergeron / Timéo Fonteny 
  •  Yoan Boronad / Nicolas Zurita 
  •  Maxime Joris / Giulio Graziotti 
  •  Bastien Blanqué / Maxime Deloyer 
  •  Arthur Hugounenq / Jérémy Robert 

Several associations clearly deserve close attention.

A pair to watch:  Maxime Joris who embarks on a  new association with the Italian Giulio Graziotti A duo to watch closely to see if they connect quickly.

Finally, there will also be a rather intriguing pair on paper with  Bastien Blanqué and the Belgian Maxime Deloyer , former Belgian number 1.

 French players also in the qualifiers in the Netherlands 

 qualifications  They will also be well represented on the French side, with several pairs entered:

  •  Thomas Seux / Nathan Courrin 
  •  Lucas Pillon / Guy de Chamisso 
  •  Tristan Piombo / Arthaud Dumoulin 

All these duos will try to secure a place in the  main board .

 FIP Gold Almaty: the big event of the week 

This is probably the most competitive tournament of the week on the  FIP Tour  : the  FIP Gold Almaty in Kazakhstan.

On the French side, two cases will need to be closely monitored.

 In the men's category: Seurin and Vanbauce in a strong showing 

In the men's table, we will find:

  •  Julien Seurin / Thomas Vanbauce 

The two Frenchmen will be  pair number 16  of this tournament, in a draw that is necessarily denser and more demanding.

 For the ladies: Merrah and Razafindranaly   TBC 

In the women's table, we will also follow:

  •  Steffi Merrah / Julie Razafindranaly 

Both players arrive with good momentum after their  very good run at the FIP Bronze Hong Kong and will try to extend this positive run in a necessarily more challenging context.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
