When for his Head Padel Open Tennis P250 / Padel Club de Marseille (TCM) last weekend, the club showed that it was according to him “small in size but large in plateau level". A beautiful plateau: that's obvious.

Du padel despite the rain !

It was necessary to be brave and certainly a little drugged by this sport to play in the rain. After a qualifying weekend disturbed by the rain or the players showed a good spirit, the survivors faced last weekend the seeded from 1 / 8 finals.

Boulade / Authier winners but on the wire

For men, the hierarchy was respected but heckled except for the David / Grandmont pair falling after a quarter-final of more than 1:4 played after 2 tie-break against Leandri / Launo.

Note a complicated entry for Boulade / Authier 1 seed head to battle 3 sets to get rid of local Cayla / Henriot. Cayla / Henriot, a pair who definitely lacks luck in his draw after the tournament in Aix-en-Provence.

The final was between 1 and Salles / Gauthier. An explosive final with a very beautiful game but leaving the victory to the youth, Authier / Boulade winning 6 / 4 6 / 4.

The 3me place returning to Leandri / launo on Sidbon / Darnal.

Casanova and Sorel TCM Champions

In the girls it is from the semi-finals that business is complicated, Nadal / Dalain facing Vo / Damiano and the other half Pibis / Rouquette played against the 2 members of the France team Sorel / Casanova.

And there also no surprise in the two meetings, the final will see the pair number 1 take the upper hand 6/4 7/5 over Damiano / Vo in a very tight game. The 3rd place is for the local team Dalain / Nadal.

Note the return of Mai Vo who had a little disappeared radar after a long injury. The pair Damiano / Vo is to watch closely.
