Huge performance from Thomas Leygue and Ferran Insa Sotillo who overthrew the Spanish pair Gil / Sager in two sets. The Franco-Spanish duo qualifies for the round of 16 of the P1 Mendoza Premier Padel.

On paper, the Franco-Spanish pair was not the favorite and yet they delivered an XXL performance against the Spanish duo Gil (61st FIP) / Sager (51st FIP). From the start of the game, Thomas and Ferran demonstrated their superiority by winning a brilliant first round with a score of 6/1, and this, in less than 30 minutes only. Gil and Sager seemed stunned by this show of force and had difficulty destabilizing the Franco-Spanish pair who shone through their connection on the pitch.

Thomas Leygue in Mendoza

The second round was more contested, but in the crucial moments, Thomas and Ferran proved to be the strongest. Of the 11 break opportunities, the Spanish pair converted none, proof of the solidity of Leygue and Insa Sotillo.

Even when the latter found themselves trailing 0/40 while serving for the match, they were able to keep their composure and repel the assaults of their opponents. Thomas Leygue and Ferran Insa Sotillo win in two sets 6/1 6/4 and qualify for the Round of 16 of P1 Mendoza Premier Padel.

A major challenge awaits the Franco-Spanish pair on Wednesday: they will have to face a formidable duo, Miguel Yanguas and Fernando Belasteguin. The latter will undoubtedly be transcended by the fact that he plays at home. Will they be able to achieve this feat? See you on Wednesday.
