Fifth day of competition and what a day!

Ce World Padel Tour treats us and has not finished surprising us.

Today's posters promised a show and one thing's for sure, we've had our fair share of surprises !

In the men

The day started with THE SURPRISE of the morning!

Juan Tello and Federico Chingotto fell to Adrian Allemandi and Pablo Lijo in a very close match!

The Hispanic - Argentinian pair, outsider in this meeting, made an excellent start to the match, taking the advantage 6-4. The Argentines manage to pick up the score thanks to a more offensive game. They win the second set 6-4. We thought then that they were going to unfold.
But it was without counting on the determination on the part of Tito Allemandi et Pablo Lijo who at the end of a very close third set, manage to snatch victory with a final score 6-4 / 4-6 / 7-5.

Later in the morning it was the turn of the numbers 1 to enter the track against Ramiro Moyano and José Rico.

The latter arrived in confidence after eliminating yesterday the very promising duo Miguel Semmler / Javier Leal.
Today it was a different story because Juan lebron et Alejandro galan left them no chance by winning quite logically 6-1 / 6-3.

This morning they face the surprise of these quarter-finals Tito Allemandi et Pablo Lijo.

At the same time yesterday the match between Paquito Navarro - Martin Di Nenno and another young pair that will be talked about in the coming years: Miguel Yanguas / Ivan Ramirez. The favorites fulfilled their end of the deal by winning 6-3 / 6-4.

They will have to be in good shape today to fight against Juan Cruz Belluati et Javier Garrido, which gradually increase in power, as evidenced by this 7-6 (2) / 6-2 victory over Mendez / Rubio. They will play their first quarter together against a pair built like theirs, ie an Andalusian associated with an Argentinian!

This afternoon there were still some very big matches being played and a new surprise was added.

Pablo Lima and Augustin Tapia faced Jeronimo gonzalez et javier rico.

The underdogs got off to a good start by winning the 1st set but the Argentinean - Brazilian pair managed to regain control by hanging up the cars in the second set.

Rico and Gonzalez after battling and dominating the first part of the third set 4-0, the favorites had to abandon the game following an injury to the cannon of Porto Alegre. Final score:  6-7 (2) / 6-4 / 0-4.

Their opponents for their first quarter together will be Maxi Sanchez et I fight Capra, who continue their good momentum since the last WPT, managed to qualify in 3 sets against Denis Tomas Perino et Ernesto Moreno, 6-4/3-6/6-0.

At the end of the afternoon it was at Franco Stupazcuk et Alejandro Ruiz to shine on the central courtyard of the Palace of the Deportees of Santander during a meeting against Miguel Lamperti and Arturo Coello.
Unfortunately for them, “Captain America”And Stupa were unleashed and walked around the whole game.

Speedy victory 6-2 / 6-0 for a ticket giving them access to the quarter-finals.

So today we will have the third meeting between these two phenomena and a legendary pair of the circuit.

Indeed they will play the “beautiful” face to sanyo gutierrez et Fernando Belasteguin, who after a stressful and intense match, managed to snatch the victory against Los Lucas, Bergamini and Campagnollo after a game in 2 sets very hung 7-5 / 7-6 (5). Bela and Sanyo recovered well after being down 4/0 in the first run!

We can not wait to see what this confrontation will give because we recall that during their last two meetings the two teams each won their match once.

We let you enjoy the summary of these 1 / 8ths final in pictures

In the ladies

A totally different scenario where the big favorites clearly provided. Only one surprise on this day of eighths.

The numbers 1 continue their momentum and pass the Round of 1 relatively easily against Raquel Piltcher and Esther Carnicero with a score of 8-6 / 3-6.

Thus Salazar et Triay find themselves this morning facing one of the pairs in form of this beginning of the year: Delfina Brea et Tamara Icardo. These two young players arrive in full swing after beating Eli Amatriain and Sofia Araujo in a one-sided 6-1 / 6-2 match.

Later in the morning the match between the Alayeto sisters and Cata Tenorio - Julieta Bidahorria.

All the Atomikas twins did not falter and calmly managed to eliminate their rivals 6-4 / 6-3.
They will therefore have a quarter of the most interesting today against the Martas who did not falter against Mari Carmen Villalba and Alba Galan 6-2 / 6-4.

Big poster for these four players who have everything to prove this season and are determined to advance to the semi to show everyone that we can still count on them.

The champions of the last World Padel Tour which was played in Vigo, Patricia Llaguno et Virginia Riera, were once again decisive and relentless against Marta Talavan and Lorena Rufo Ortiz.
A real health walk, 6-0 / 6-2.

They will play their quarter-final against Ariana Sanchez et Paula Josemaria, who also did not tremble against Lorena Alonso and Isabel Dominguez 6-3 / 6-2.

A match that we were looking forward to was the one between Aranzazu Osoro / Victoria Iglesias and Carla Mesa/Barbara LasHeras. Rather well since the start of the 2021 season, Osoro and Iglesias have not managed to enter the quarter-finals once again. At the end of a crazy match, at the very high level of play on each side, they are forced to stop in 1 / 8th on a defeat in 7-6 (5) / 6-7 (1) / 5-7 .

Jorge de Benito's players will face each other Bea Gonzalez et Lucia Sainz who walked around in their match against Sandra Bellver and Claudia Jensen.
