They had to fight in three sets against the nice surprise of the tournament, Andrea Ustero and Alejandra Alonso, who managed to qualify from qualifying.

The first set was particularly hotly contested, with the underdogs very enterprising and the world number ones a bit in difficulty. Ustero / Alonso won this tight set with a score of 6-4.

And despite a physical alert in the forearm for Paula Josemaría, who penalizes her shots above the head, Ariana Sanchez and Paula Josemaría tighten the game as Ustero / Alonso are largely inside in this second set at sense unique. The score is 6/0 for Sanchez / Josemaría.

In the third se, it goes like crazy for Ustero / Alonso with an entry break, they quickly lead 3/0. And once again, the world number ones come back by breaking on a white game to pick up 3 everywhere. They keep their opponents under pressure, who make a few small mistakes, getting broken again. The seed 1, who has the match almost won, makes a huge mistake on a punto de oro at 5/3 (from Josemaría), but they hold their serve to conclude the match. The score is 6/4 for Sanchez / Josemaría.

The final score is 4/6, 6/0, 6/4 for the world number ones in difficulty, but who raise their level against a very nice promising pair. In the semi-finals, they will face Bea Gonzalez and Delfina Brea, who won easily 6/3, 6/1 against Lucía Sainz and Aranzazu Osoro. It's a remake of their thriller finale from last week at The Human. Padel Open.

After being rocked by tennis for nearly 15 years, I became an absolute fan of its cousin, the padel. For nearly a year now, I've been chasing the little yellow ball with another racquet, but with just as much passion! Based in Lyon, I intend to make you better acquainted with the padel in the region and at the national level.
