At men's

Tello / Chingotto vs Lijo / Allemandi

From 09:30 am yesterday, in the central courtyard, the day began with the meeting between Juan Tello - Federico Chingotto face Martin Pineiro et Javier Gonzalez.

The Argentines took out the Spaniards relatively easily with a score of 6-1 / 6-2.

They will have for adversary Pablo Lijo et Adrian Germani, who managed to win quite logically against the brand new pair Jon sanz et Christian Fuster 6-4 6-3.

Navarro / Di Nenno vs Ramirez / Yanguas

At the same time on Court 2 was playing a clash that we were impatiently awaiting. That of the very promising pair composed by Miguel Yanguas et Ivan Ramirez and always solid Francisco Gil Morales (35) et Sergio Alba (34). On paper the two teams were equal but it was without counting on the determination and the confidence of Yanguas et Ramirez. The youngsters manage to win their ticket for the 1 / 8th final thanks to a 6-4 / 6-3 victory.

They will have to fight today against a formidable and very fit pair which is none other than the one made up of Paquito Navarro and Martin Di Nenno.

Indeed, the vice champions of the Vigo Open are fully reboosted, in full confidence and seem to have found the magic formula to make the winning machine work.

Bela / Sanyo vs Bergamini / Campagnolo

The second part of the morning confronted Lucas Bergamini - Lucas Campagnolo face Javier Martinez et Augustin Gutierrez.

“Los Lucas” succeeded in their entry into the competition by winning 7-5 / 6-3 against the Spanish - Argentinian pair.
This afternoon they will meet the last winners of WPT Vigo, sanyo gutierrez et Fernando Belasteguin.

The Brazilians who lost to them in Galicia (7/5 7/5) will have to deploy a more offensive game to try to find the loophole against the veterans of the tournament.

Lima / Tapia vs Rico / Gonzalez

On the second pitch, we were able to watch the match between Antonio Fernandez Cano - José Diestro et Jeronimo gonzalez - javier rico.

After a close first part of the match in favor of Cano and Diestro, those they had beaten at FIP Gold in Jaén finally found the loophole and managed to completely reverse the trend to fly over the rest.

Final score: 6-4 / 0-6 / 1-6 for Rico / Gonzalez. Today they will be opposed, at 15:30 p.m., to Pablo Lima and Agustin Tapia who are chasing their first final of 2021.

Belluati / Garrido vs Mendez / Rubio

The morning ended yesterday with the victory of Juan Cruz Belluati - Javier Garrido facing the qualifieds Anton Sans - Iñigo Zaratiegui on the score of 6/1 / 6/3.

The Andalusian and the Argentinian are gaining momentum, and today they will face the surprise of these 1/16 finals, rafael mendez et Gonzalo Rubio.

The two new friends surprised their world by winning against Javier Ruiz et Uri Botello in an unbreathable match. Final score: 4-6 / 7-6 (5) / 6-4!

Since the start of the 2021 season, Ruiz and Botello have alternated between hot and cold a little and have not yet managed to find a satisfactory pace of play.

On their side, Rafa Mendez et Zalo Rubio have all their chances to overcome Garrido et Belluati, we can't wait to see what this meeting will give.

Galan / Lebron vs Moyano / Rico

At 15:30 p.m. it was the turn of Ramiro Moyano et José Rico to play.

They faced this year's reveal pair: Miguel Semmler et Francisco Javier Leal.

We had our eyes riveted on this pair which for several weeks now surprises us more and more. Unfortunately for them, this time they did not succeed in creating a surprise.
The young pair were knocked out 6-4 / 6-3 by a Moyano and Rico very offensive. The latter will be confronted, as in Vigo, with numbers 1, Alejandro galan et Juan LeBron.

Capra / Sanchez vs Moreno / Perino

In the afternoon there was also a match between Nacho Gadea - Victor Ruiz et Maxi Sanchez - I fight Capra.

Le “Vila Mercedes shark” and his sidekick qualify easily with a score of 6-3 / 6-1.

They will meet an unexpected pair, Denis Tomas Perino et Ernesto Moreno.

Indeed, these two, after a hotly contested second set, managed to overcome Juani Mieres et Alvaro Cepero. Final score: 6-3 / 7-6 (6).

Ruiz / Stupaczuk vs Coello / Lamperti

Finally, after a match in 3 sets we will find in the 1/8 finals one of the strongest pairs of this 2021 edition: Franco Stupazcuk et Alejandro Ruiz.

The number 2 pair in the Race overcame the pair Sillingo/Diaz. Disappointing at the start of the year, the veterans will have struggled but they finally lose with a score of 6-4 / 5-7 / 6-2.

We can't wait to see their next match tomorrow against Miguel Lamperti et Arturo Coello, who won yesterday in a big match against Juan Martin Diaz et Jorge nieto : 6-2 / 2-6 / 6-1. The two pairs have already faced each other this season, in Madrid, and Ruiz and Stupa had won in straight sets? Will they be able to reoffend today?

Remember that if they win their clash, they may have the opportunity to play again against White et Sanyo, for a “beautiful” at the top.

The Andalusian and the Madrilenian qualified following the abandonment of the pair Lucia Martinez placeholder image et Veronica Virseda have revenge to take in the face of Ortega et Marrero who had beaten them at the same stage of the competition in Galicia. Recall that so far the number 4 seed has failed to develop its best padel.

Another interesting game. Heckled at times by the French Alix Collombon and her partner Jessica Castello, Osoro and Iglesias have been solid in the important moments and have shown why they are one of the pairs this start of the year.
