The French Championships of padel 2020 must take place from September 25 to 27, 2020. Can the health crisis have an impact on competition?

Indeed, the biggest French tennis event will take place from September 20 to October 4, 2020. This will mean that the end of the first week at Roland-Garros will coincide with the final phases of the French Championships of padel 2020.

What if we had the right to dream? And if the FFT offered us padel during the French internationals? The ATP tournament in Acapulco, Mexico a month ago, allowed the second stage of the American Padel Tour within the tennis competition. A huge success.

However, the FFT could face several problems:

1. The organization: it's already far from simple for the FFT in 2020, can she support an organization padel during Roland-Garros at RG?

2. The weather: end of September / beginning of October, there is still every chance to have good weather. But the days are getting shorter and in the event of rain, one would have to resolve to return to a club. padel Parisian. However, there have already been French championships of padel in Paris in 2019 (Casa Padel).

3. The square: can the new infrastructures accommodate 2 padel ? 1 land? If so, then one could imagine main draw matches at a club and semi-finals at Roland Garros. A methodology similar to FFT PADEL TOUR, especially since the FFT already has great experience.

If for the moment, the global ambition is to stop the development of the Coronavirus epidemic, the subject of the French championships of padel will come.
