Le  main draw of the Paris Major  opens this Tuesday, September 9. The French pairs will be there, most of them on the center court, in an atmosphere that promises to be very lively.

11 a.m. – Ginier / Pappacena open the ball

The day begins with  Jessica Ginier (154) and Chiara Pappacena (106) , who face  Ana Catarina Nogueira (37) and Melania Merino (52) A big challenge at the start for the Frenchwoman and the Italian, facing a pair from the world's top 50.

12:30 p.m. – Godallier / Carnicero with confidence

In the process, place to  Léa Godallier (59) and Esther Carnicero (57) , opposed to  Patricia Martínez Fortún (60) and Jana Montes Cabruja (62) On paper, a balanced match: Léa knows Fortún well, with whom she has already played, a small detail that could count.

Not before 15 p.m. – Bahurel / Pothier want to shake up the hierarchy

 Louise Bahurel (130) and Lucile Pothier (172)  will challenge  Julia Polo (55) and Noemi Aguilar (51) A higher-ranked Spanish pair, but the draw remains one of the most affordable if the two French women quickly find their rhythm.

Not before 17 p.m. – Tison / Forcin face heavyweights

 Benjamin Tison (368) and Maxime Forcin (509)  will have a lot to face  David Gala (46) and Lucas Campagnolo (33) The Spanish-Brazilian duo are coming off good results (quarter-finals in Tarragona, eighth in Madrid) and will be favorites. But Tison and Forcin know how to surprise, especially in front of their home crowd.

Not before 18:30 p.m. – Bergeron / Blanqué meet Sanyo and Alfonso

Another big poster:  Johan Bergeron (107) and Bastien Blanqué (109)  play again  Sanyo Gutiérrez (34) and Gonzalo Alfonso (32) Having already met in Bordeaux (defeat 7/6 6/4), the French know what to expect and will try to adjust the missing details.

Court 7

Touly and Arellano against Orsi / Fassio

On the  Court 7 , not before  17 hrs ,  Carla Touly (90)  et  Marta Arellano Navarro (73)  will launch their tournament against the pair  Carolina Orsi (32)  et  Martina Fassio (45) . A first round far from simple: Orsi is a confirmed player in the top 30, that Touly knows well having already faced her in the final of the  FIP Silver Côte du Midi , where she had taken a set from him. Not favorites on paper, the Franco-Spanish nevertheless have the weapons to cause problems if they manage to establish their game.

Fonteny / Boronad with a move to play

 Timéo Fonteny (197) and Yoan Boronad (220)  will not be on center court. Scheduled on court 7, they will start against  Ignacio Vilariño (70) and Salva Oria (86) The Spanish remain the favorites, but the young French pair have shown some very good things in recent months and can hope for a chance.

Collombon will wait

Alone  Alix Collombon , seeded No. 13 with  Araceli Martínez , will not enter the competition on Tuesday: they will start directly in the second round.

Benjamin Dupouy

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 !
