Marc Durieux and Antoine Melmiès win the magnificent Angers Open Padel this week-end.
An event she won without losing a set, and without being really worried.
Head of series 4 of the tournament, she will manage to spend ¼ and half halves without a hitch.
In this final of the Open Angers Padel, Durieux / Melmiès arrived motivated and the batteries fully charged.
The same can not be said of their opponents in the final.
Placed in a part of the table certainly a little more raised, the Parisian pair, Clément Oudart / Sylvain Gimenez will have to fight to create the feat and win his half against the seeded n ° 1 of the tournament: Otherwise Boissé and Justin Garnier .
A huge semi-final from the 4 players. Oudart / Gimenez especially used Justin Garnier who has not stopped being attacked in this part. More than 2 hours of matches with “marathon” points. The pair that would win mortgaged their luck in the final.
The Parisian pair thus won in 3 sets… But at what price!
Behind, in the final, Gimenez / Oudart delivers a very complicated game compared to his performance of the semi-finals. Blame it on aggressive and regular northerners, but also on a physical and mental breakdown.
Melmiès / Durieux asphyxiate Parisians already badly in point. Too fast, too regular, Marc and Antoine achieve a flawless and win in 2 sets their final (6 / 4 6 / 4).
Undoubtedly, we see the level rising. Or will we stop them? The Durieux / Melmiès pair were not a gift for anyone and they showed it in this tournament.
Note the very good performances of two qualified pairs: the Nantes pair, Baptiste Marquez / Julien Couratin and the Orleans pair Damien Duport and Simon Aurélien.
A special mention to the flawless organization of Christelle and Olivier Menier, the managers of the Padel Angers.
