We've known it for a while, Lucas Pouille is a lover of padel. So much so that the tennis player will play his first P1000 this weekend. It will be at 4Padel of Orleans, with Thomas Mitjana.

In search of a teammate for the tournament, Thomas Mitjana has found a renowned partner in the person of Lucas Pouille. The two men, who have known each other in tennis for many years, have participated in several training games together at Racing in recent weeks. Enough to make them want to register together for a big tournament of padel French: the P1000 of Orleans.

Assimilated number 150 au padel, the former 10th player in the world is not lacking in talent, as explained to us by the person who will be sharing the track with him this weekend: “He is playing really well. He has participated in very few tournaments but has already won a P500. It will be a first for him in P1000”.

And the one who has already won 4 P1000 would like to add one to his list: “We will give everything, tear ourselves away, and try to win all the matches.” It's not going to be easy because there will be several very solid pairs, like Authier/Vincent, but Thomas promises to “cover his tracks” and ensures that he is moving to “try to win the competition”.

The competition is warned!
