The men's semi-finals of the P2000 Impact Stadium La Rochelle confirm the domination of the first two seeds, Thomas Leygue / Bastien Blanqué and Dylan Guichard / Johan Bergeron. These two pairs, among the best on the French circuit, will meet for a highly anticipated final, which promises to be a high-level spectacle.
Unfailing domination for Leygue / Blanqué
The pair Thomas Leygue and Bastien Blanqué, triple French champions, dominated their semi-final against Maxime Forcin and Nicolas Rouanet (TS7). With a quick victory (6/1 6/0), the number 1 seed left no chance to their opponents. The statistics speak for themselves: 0 break point conceded and total mastery with 5 breaks made from 9 opportunities.
Bergeron / Guichard solid and efficient
In the other semi-final, Dylan Guichard and Johan Bergeron, seeded number 2, got the better of Adrien Maigret and Jérôme Inzerillo (TS3) with a victory in two sets (6/3 6/4). Unlike the other semi-final, this match offered more resistance from the losers, but Bergeron and Guichard always seemed to control the game. As evidenced by their 0 break point conceded statistic, while converting two of the fifteen break opportunities obtained.
A prestigious finale
This final will pit two pairs who embody the elite of French padel against each other. Thomas Leygue and Bastien Blanqué, with their experience and their complementarity, will try to continue their good course. But facing them, Johan Bergeron, four-time French champion, and Dylan Guichard, in great form, will not lack arguments to win the title.

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 !
