For their very first match together, the French Carla Toully and the spanish Carolina Navarro did not tremble. Opposed to the pair Marianela Montesi / Carla Castillo Velarde, they won in two controlled sets 6 / 3 6 / 4, in just 1 hour 17 minutes of play.

Solid in key moments

Touly and Navarro were able to make the difference thanks to a management of important points much more effective than that of their opponents. In particular, they converted 67% of their break points, compared to only 20% for Montesi and Castillo. Their ability to raise the bar on return games was one of the key elements of this victory: 45% of points won in return, compared to only 28% on the opposing side.

An already promising alchemy

This victory marks a promising start for the Franco-Spanish duo, who seem to have quickly found their rhythms. For Touly, it's also a great reward after having decided not to play the FIP Silver Bandol at home, a difficult but strategic choice to take advantage of such an opportunity alongside a former world number 1.

A new challenge starting tomorrow

In search of a place in the main draw, Touly and Navarro will have a new challenge to face this Monday. They will face the seeded 8 qualifications, Sara Pujals Perez / Daiara Valenzuela to secure a place in the final table. The match is scheduled in third rotation of 10 a.m. on court 8.

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 !
