P1500 All In Villefranche – Hierarchy respected with the victory of Ginier/Pothier

There were no surprises during this P1500 All In Villefranche-sur-Saône, where the number 1 seed, Jessica Ginier-Barbier and Lucile Pothier, won. The pair triumphed against Tiffany Phaysouphanh and Fiona Ligi (TS3) with a score of 6/4 6/3.

This was the first big event for All In Villefranche-sur-Saône. The best French players were invited to compete during this P1500. The hierarchy was respected from start to finish, without much surprise throughout the weekend. However, the Phaysouphanh/Ligi pair produced a great performance in the semi-final by winning against Marie-Amélie Dardaine and Charlotte Soubrié (TS2).

The final was more complicated for the number three seed, facing the vice-champions of France, Jessica Ginier-Barbier and Lucile Pothier. Although they conceded a break at the start of the match, both players were able to react quickly to get back into the game. In the end, two sets were enough for the Ginier/Pothier pair to win this P1500.

The event was a great success. Many players made the trip, as did a large audience who came to attend this first competition. This is promising for future events organized by the club!
