La  first women's semi-final  du  Qatar Major Premier Padel 2025  opposes the number 7 seed,  Alejandra Salazar and Veronica Virseda , to pair no. 2 of the table,  Gemma Triay and Delfina Brea An unprecedented duel at this level, which promises a confrontation full of challenges between players with very different trajectories.

Salazar and Virseda aim for their first final together

The Spanish-Spanish pair has not yet  never won a title on the circuit Premier Padel . A victory today would be  synonymous with first Major final  for the pair. It is also their  best result of the season , equaling their previous semi-finals in 2024.

  •  Alejandra Salazar , a true legend of women's padel, has  52 tracks  to his record, namely the  absolute record  in the women's category. She competed  three finals in Premier Padel including  two outside .
  •  Verónica Virseda , for his part, has only reached one final on this circuit, in  indoor .
  • Interesting fact: Salazar has not  beat Gemma Triay or Delfina Brea only in Major . A sign?

Triay and Brea in search of a fourth consecutive title

The dynamics are totally different for  Gemma Triay and Delfina Brea , currently  undefeated since February 16 , the date of their only defeat of the year in the semi-final in Riyadh. Since then, they have  chained three consecutive titles  :  Gijon, Cancun and Miami .

  •  Gemma Triay  is the  the only player still in the running to have already played in a final in Doha , and above all, the  the only one to have won a Major with two different partners  : Paula Josemaría in Italy (2023) and Claudia Fernandez in Mexico (2024). She could today  become the first to do so with a third .
  • If she wins, Gemma would reach the  20 finals in Premier Padel , equaling  Ariana Sánchez and Paula Josemaría .
  •  Delfina Brea , for his part, has not  never won a Major , but she is one of two players (along with Bea González) to have played  five consecutive finals If she wins today, she would equal that record with Gemma.
  • Also note: on their  10 titles each , alone  3 for Gemma  et  4 for Delfi  were obtained  outdoors , which adds a factor of uncertainty to this semi-final in Qatar.
