This Friday the quarter-finals of World Padel Tour Finnish Open, and the least we can say is that the tables are more open than usual.

Fierce competition with the absence of Josemaria / Sanchez

In girls, the absence of numbers 1 Paula Josemaria and Ari Sanchez, who won ten events of the World Padel Tour this season, leaves the field open to their pursuers. Marta Ortega and Gemma Triay, finalists in the last three WPT tournaments, will obviously want to seize the opportunity. Same thing for Bea Gonzalez and Delfi Brea, who will try to win a third title this season. These two duos will obviously have to be wary of the new Araujo / Salazar pair, and of Riera and Icardo, always in ambush.

Now or never for Lebron and Galan?

For men, this tournament is quite simply a bargain for just about every pair. Indeed, the two duos who have won all competitions so far in 2023 are absent from the quarter-finals! Di Nenno injured, Coello and Tapia eliminated by Ruiz/Bergamini, the competition is already rubbing its hands.

Lebron and Galan, who are having a disappointing season so far, will they seize the opportunity and offer themselves a first title this year? To achieve this, the players of Mariano Amat, who came close to taking the door against Ruiz / Belluati, will have to raise their level of play. Especially since they face this Friday Momo Gonzalez and Sanyo, twice finalists together this year!

Chingotto and Tello, finalists three times this season (twice on Premier Padel, once on the WPT), are also going to want their piece of the pie, just like all the other pairs that want to grab this golden opportunity.

It looks very hot in Tampere!
