Logic was finally respected at  P1000 FJ Lawyer / 4PADEL Challans .  Dornberger / Arette-Hourquet (TS1)  et  Garcia / Perez Le Tiec (TS2)  have secured their place in the final. But while the number 1 seed dominated their semi-final, the number 2 seed had to battle for more than two and a half hours.

Garcia / Perez Le Tiec at the end of a nail-biting finish

The first semi-final between  Garcia / Perez Le Tiec (TS2)  et  Truong / Dulac (TS3)  kept all its promises.

These are first  Matthieu Truong and Florent Dulac  who take control. Very consistent and solid defensively, they trouble their opponents, quickly get a break, and even finish the set with a second to clinch the first set.  6/3 .

But Garcia and Perez Le Tiec didn't give up. The second set was much more balanced. The second seed broke serve once before being broken back, and the two teams remained neck and neck until the  tie-breaker This time, Garcia/Perez Le Tiec made the difference to force a third set:  7/6 .

In the decisive set, the second seed ultimately proved more solid in the crucial moments. A few inaccuracies from Truong/Dulac were enough to turn the match around.

After  over 2.5 hours of fighting Garcia / Perez Le Tiec win  3/6 7/6 6/4  and reach the final. It's worth noting the impressive run of Truong/Dulac, with Florent Dulac reaching only his second career semi-final.

Dornberger / Arette-Hourquet are much quieter

In the other semi-final,  Dornberger / Arette-Hourquet (TS1)  did not experience the same difficulties in the face of  Setodji / Chevillard (TS7) .

The top seed quickly imposed his game and also capitalized on numerous opponent errors to take a commanding lead. The first set was over in a flash.  6/1 .

Setodji and Chevillard offered more resistance in the second set, but Dornberger and Arette-Hourquet maintained control. They concluded  6 / 1 6 / 4  and secure another final without having been truly troubled.

The highly anticipated final between TS1 and TS2

We will therefore be treated to the expected poster for the title:  Dornberger / Arette-Hourquet (TS1) against Garcia / Perez Le Tiec (TS2) .

The question will also be what physical condition the number 2 seed will be in after his marathon semi-final match lasting over two and a half hours. His opponents, Dornberger and Arette-Hourquet, will have expended considerably less energy.

 Meet around 15pm , with a final to follow  directly on Padel MagTV .

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
