Le FIP GOLD in Lyon, scheduled from October 8 to 13, is already shaping up to be explosive. Readers of Padel Magazine understood it well. Indeed, with the surprise cancellation of the stage Premier Padel in Sweden, scheduled for the same period, the Lyon stage becomes a golden opportunity to capture all the attention.

Players who do not wish to take advantage of this forced break will be able to travel to Lyon and play at the Palais des Sports, which will host the final stages of the tournament.

Is the cancellation of Sweden P2 a boon for FIP Gold Lyon?

The FIP Tour could thus benefit from this cancellation. In fact, 90% of you believe that the event in Lyon could become the most beautiful event ever organized in the FIP GOLD category. And if the International Federation of Padel (FIP) transformed the FIP GOLD into FIP PLATINUM? This would be an exceptional opportunity for the FIP, which would be the first to take advantage of the Lyon infrastructure and organization, thus offering a prestigious event for ladies and gentlemen.

As is often the case, money remains the sinews of war, with much more demanding specifications for the organizer. Because if the FIP would be the main beneficiary, the risks and costs would rest largely on the shoulders of the organizers.

For now, all this remains at the speculation stage, especially since the event is scheduled in a month and a half. But for the FIP, this is the perfect opportunity to offer a FIP PLATINUM, and we imagine that it could relax its requirements to allow players to enjoy a very high-level tournament.

Case to follow.
