This is a positive result for French players in this second day of the tournament at the Amsterdam Open, since of the three French people involved in Wednesday's day, two qualified for the round of XNUMX.

Hostilities began at 10 a.m. for Benjamin Tison and Léa Godallier. On the central court, the Ile-de-France native and the Belgian Clément Geens were there to write history. Faced with locals Bart Van Opstal and Uriel Maarsen, invited to the tournament, there was a real challenge to play. At the end of a match well managed from start to finish, Clément and Benjamin secure a place in the round of XNUMX. This is the fifth victory in a row in this Amsterdam Open for the Franco-Belgian pair, straight out of qualifying.

Mixed results for the ladies

For her part, Léa Godallier experienced the opposite fortune. Facing the Guinart/Navarro pair, the Frenchwoman and her partner Eli Amatriain were unable to impose their game. Broken each time on the former world number 1's serve, the Franco-Spanish pair lost 6/2 6/2. New defeat for this pair which comes to the end of their collaboration, Eli Amatriain having announced his retirement following the Minorca tournament. Léa Godallier is looking for his seventh partner of the year.

Alix Collombon returned a little later this Wednesday. As during the FIP Platinum Sardegna, the Frenchwoman benefited from the abandonment of the Icardo/Riera pair. Facing lucky-losers Ariadna Cañellas and Noemi Aguilar, the Rufo/Collombon pair only had to play their game. In less than fifty minutes of play, Alix and Lorena qualified for the round of 6 with a score of 1/6 0/4. Thanks to this success, the Lyonnaise and the Spaniard offer themselves a small gala match against Alejandra Salazar and Sofia Araujo (TSXNUMX), exempt from the first round.

You have understood, Benjamin Tison and Alix Collombon will have a lot to do during the round of XNUMX to try to compete for a place in the quarter-finals of this Amsterdam Open.
