The three players entered this afternoon at the World Padel Tour Santander Open all bowed, not without struggling.

Zero out of three, this is how we could summarize the afternoon of the tricolors on the World Padel Tour Santander Open. After the defeat of Mélissa Martin and Rebeca Lopez 2 / 6 4 / 6 in the first round of the preprevias, facing Fernandes / Ribeiro, it is the pairs Bergeron / Vasquez and Tison / Zapata who lost in the first round of the previas.

The two pairs will have fought big fights, but it does not pass this time. Present for the first time in previas together, Johan Bergeron and Simon Vasquez were dominated by the experienced Vasco Pascoal and Facundo Dominguez. A defeat in straight sets, 6 / 7 5 / 7, which nevertheless proves that the Franco-Swedish pair are not far off at the start of the season.

José Solano

Benjamin Tison and Teo Zapata dreamed of repeat Vigo's feat but the French and the Spaniard lost after a very big match against Juanlu Esbri and José Solano. The two young Spaniards will have been solid in the hot moments to win at the end of the suspense 7/6 6/7 6/4. The proof once again that in previas, many pairs have the level for the upper echelon.

Following these three defeats, there are only two French girls left in Santander. Alix Collombon and Jessica Castello start Wednesday in 14h, opposite Osoro / Iglesias. Léa Godallier and Ariadna Cañellas start as for them tomorrow in 18h against the winners of the match between Schuck / Wyckaert and León / Seijas. We wish them good luck !
