Patricia Martinez and Marta Borrero won their meeting of the Final Master de l 'APT Padel Tour against Ruiz / Blanco. The Spaniards go to the microphone of Padel Magazine from Guadalajara.

Try the challenge

Lorenzo Lecci Lopez: The results of the group are very particular. Yesterday it seemed like the lost match was more accessible, and today you win a harder match on paper.

Patricia Martinez:"Yes you are completely right. We had a very bad match yesterday, and our opponents adapted perfectly to the track. They completely deserved their victory. Today we entered the field with a different attitude. We knew it was going to be tough but we were up for the challenge.”

Marta Borrero:“We worked as a team throughout the game. That was what was missing yesterday. These players were also more experienced and that worked in their favour. Today we were able to start from zero and put on a great game.”

friends outside

Lorenzo Lecci Lopez: This is the first tournament you've played together. How is the adaptation ?

Patricia Martinez:"Very well. I am delighted to play alongside him. We get along very well off the track, we have been friends for a long time. She helps me a lot on the track.”

Marta Borrero:“I will say the same thing! Our friendship helps us a lot on the track. We know that we must above all support each other in complicated times. If one falls, the other picks it up.

Lorenzo Lecci Lopez: There was a very hot moment during the match. Why are you so upset?

Patricia Martinez:“There was a questionable ball that was very clear to me. I saw that the ball hit the grid, and that made me angry.

Marta Borrero:“The referee said the ball was good, and there should be no argument. That's why we tried to get back into the game quickly.

Make the decision

Lorenzo Lecci Lopez: The 4 pairs will be qualified at the end of the group stage. Where do you get the motivation?

Patricia Martinez:"So already, these matches allow us to win more prize money. We also want to qualify as group leaders to avoid the fittest pair. We want to win everything.”

Lorenzo Lecci Lopez: We know the particular situation of the various professional circuits with the APT, the WPT and perhaps Premier Padel. What is your vision?

Patricia Martinez:“We have a meeting with the players tomorrow, and we will have to make a decision. We have all the proposals on the table.”
