Forced to retire last week in Getafe, Alix Collombon and Jessica Castello got off to a perfect start in Alicante.
The questioning rested on the thigh of Jessica Castello, injured last week in the Spanish capital. But don't panic for the fans, the player from Villena held her place well this Wednesday.
Opposed to Julia Polo and Ceci Reiter, Alix and Jessica enforced their ranking during this round of 7. Indeed, after a hung first set, the Franco-Spanish pair unrolled and therefore found the round of 6 after two complicated tournaments. Thanks to this 6/1 3/XNUMX success, Castello and Collombon will face the seed XNUMX tomorrow, composed of Patty Llaguno and Virginia Riera. So it's a big game ahead with a place in the quarter-finals at stake.
Remember that Alix is now the only Frenchwoman still in contention in this tournament since Léa Godallier and her partner Teresa Navarro have withdrawn for the competition.
