Alix Collombon / Jessica Ginier and Adrien Maigret / Benjamin Tison win the Masters of FFT PADEL TOUR Marseille on the beautiful Espace Borély square. Last big French tournament in the P2000 category in a public place.

For the women, the weeks follow one another and are similar with a new victory for the triple French champions of padel. They do not lose any set if they do not lose a few games on the way in this competition. In the final, the Ligi / Clergue pair can do nothing despite a slightly diminished Alix in this tournament because of his sprained ankle contracted during the Challenger de Casa Padel in Paris. He will need rest to be 100% at the European Championships padel in Rome.

On the men's side, the Parisian pair Maigret / Tison was very hot against Lyon's François Authier and Justin Lopes. The latter had succeeded in bringing down the French champions of padel 2019, Blanqué / Bergeron, in the semi-final the day before. The Lyons were not far from recreating a feat in this final since they led 6/2 in the tie-break, 4 balls to return to 1 set everywhere. But all the balls were saved by the Parisians who will need only one match point to validate this second set and therefore the final victory.

A very good event in Marseille that comes to conclude this first edition of the elite circuit of the FFT. A success that is not "only a start, since I can already tell you that there will be a next edition of the FFT PADEL TOUR. We will come back to the dates and places certainly at the beginning of the year.”Concludes Hubert Picquier, the elected official in charge of padel who can be proud of the progress made in barely a year since taking office ...
