However, only seeded 8, Laura Clergue and Emilie Loit were imposed this weekend on the women's P1000 of Padel Arena Rouen. The recipe for this pair is quite simple: pleasure, and zero pressure. In an interview, the ex-tenniswoman and former tennis player World Padel Tour do not rule out the possibility of playing together again. They explain to us.

No objective, only pleasure for Émilie Loit!

 Emilie Loit  : “I would say it’s been 4 years since I started playing padel with my husband at the Country Club in Saint-Cloud. There were padel lessons and that’s how we started. We then played with friends and I think it’s a fun sport that’s different from tennis of course because there are windows. But I like the competition, we do P250 tournaments regularly. Above all, we have a lot of fun because I love the game and I’m a great player, I like the competition, but honestly, there’s no goal.

What I like, for example, is playing with Laura who was a professional padel player. I am passionate about this sport, being able to play with her is just great. My goal is really to have as much fun as possible with the players.”

Less pressure for Laura

 Laura   Clergy  : “I enjoy it now that my life no longer revolves around that, let’s say. I used to take it, but it took me so long, my life depended too much on my victories and my defeats. There, I'm delighted that we won. But if we were to lose, my life would not change. I enjoy it more because I put less pressure on myself. I don’t really have a goal and then I imagine that we will repeat the experience because we enjoy it.”
