Nogueira / Josemaría: Surprise at the WPT of Mijas

The Mijas Open has many surprises in store for us. This time the surprise comes from the Marrero / Ortega pair who lost in the semi-final against Ana Catarina Nogueira / Paula Josemaría Martín in 2 small sets (6-3 / 6-2).

A surprise all the greater as Marta Ortega and Marta Marrero have made a very good start to the season and are number one in the world.

Very few were willing to bet on the pair Nogueira / Josemaria, even if the Hispano-Portuguese pair also realizes a good season since it will be his second final after that lost last June at the Open of Sweden.

As often, we find the 2e global pair Salazar / Sanchez in the final. She did not raise the level to beat Lucía Sainz / Gemma Triay. For now, clear route for the Spanish pair that will be favorite of this final.
