Victory on the wire for the Spanish pair Pablo Cardona / Paquito Navarro face Lucio Capra / Maxi Sanchez in 3 sets: 7/6, 2/6, 6/4 in 2h20 of match. But what we will remember most from this intense duel is a little nugget of Paquito…a slice like we rarely see at this level of competition.

While the Spanish pair are trailing by a break in the first set, Paquito commits a surprising foul by sending the ball very far into the stands. A moment of humility that reminds all fans that this type of foul can happen to anyone, even the best.

Fortunately, more fear than harm, since the Spanish pair will manage to come back in this first set to win in tie-breaker and, above all, get a ticket for the quarter-finals du Greenweez Paris Major 2024.
