Thomas Leygue et Clement Geens continue their great adventure at the Qatar Major with a great victory against a higher ranked pair, Mario Huete Hernandez (90th) et Denis Thomas Perino (77th).

A perfectly controlled match

However, things had started badly for the Franco-Belgian pair, with a beak conceded at the start of the first set. But far from panicking, Leygue and Geens managed to break at 4-3, before setting sail in a tie-break dominated from start to finish (7/2).

In the second set, the automatisms and confidence clearly turned in their favor. Thomas Leygue multiplied the high and deep lobs, considerably hindering their opponents, notably a Mario Huete in difficulty on this match. Thanks to two breaks, the pair won 6/2, and validates his ticket for a gala round of 16.

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 !
