As announced earlier today, Marta Marrero will be present at FIP ​​Star Gran Canaria in company Carla Mesa. This association is surprising for a tournament of this caliber, part of the “secondary” circuit in which we are not used to seeing a former world No. 1.

We do not know if it is destined to last over time given that Marrero will be present above all to please her fans by playing at home since she is a native of the island.

Carla Mesa for her part is well known to French followers since she was in partnership with Alix Collombon in 2023. Since then, the world No. 32 created a surprise at the Rome tournament last June. Associated with Ruiz, she beat Salazar / Goeanaga then Ustero / Alonso before finally losing in the quarter-final against the world No. 1 pair Josemaria / Sanchez.

If the next tournament goes well, we could possibly see the birth of a new competitive pair. She would look like a scarecrow given the ranking of the two players.
