The program of the eighths

Today, up to 1 / 8th. We obviously say to ourselves that it is a shame that these matches are not broadcast live as some posters are so attractive.

On this day marked by the entry into the running of the first 4 seeds in the men as in the women, we should still be entitled to beautiful clashes.

The 1 / 8th men

Although certainly tired from their game yesterday, Coki Nieto and JM Diaz will clearly have a card to play in the face of Uri Botello and Javi Ruiz, certainly a little lacking in rhythm. The other particularly tempting encounter is this match between Arturo Coello / Miguel Lamperti et Sergio Alba / Francisco Gil. The semi-finalists of the previous tournament will want to continue their march forward. In front of them, Alba and Gil, a pair always very catchy, very physical, who will want to offer themselves a first quarter in 2021.

Impressive yesterday against Yanguas and Ramirez, Mati Diaz and Agustin Silingo would not be against offering the finalists of the Madrid Open: Franco Stupaczuk and Alex Ruiz. If the latter will obviously be favorites, beware of the Argentinian experience in slower conditions than in the Spanish capital.

All meetings:

  • Ale Galan - Juan Lebron / Javier Martinez Vazquez - Augustin Gutierrez
  • Uri Bottello - Javier Ruiz / Juan Martin Diaz - Coki Nieto
  • Juan Tello - Federico Chingotto / Javi Rico - Jeronimo Gonzalez Luque
  • Juani Mieres - Alvaro Cepero / Paquito Navarro - Martin Di Nenno
  • Pablo Lima - Agustin Tapia / Christian Fuster - Gonzalo Rubio
  • Sergio Alba Sanchez - Francisco Gil Morales / Miguel Lamperti - Arturo Coello
  • Alex Ruiz - Franco Stupaczuk / Mati Diaz - Augustin Gomez Silingo
  • Sanyo Gutierrez - Fernando Belasteguin / Jon Sanz - Aris Patiniotis

The 1 / 8th ladies

Among the girls, new matches also, such as the meeting between Carla Mesa and Barbara Las Heras and a pair that confirms the beautiful things interviewed in Madrid: Sandra Bellver and Claudia Jensen. If the players of Jorge De Benito, who released Amatriain / Araujo yesterday, will obviously be favorites on paper, it will be necessary to be wary of this pair which mixes the ardor of Jensen, 15, and the experience of Bellver.

The sensation pair of the Madrid Open, Brea / Icardo is going to have a very big game to play against Patty Llaguno and Virginia Riera. A match which promises to be balanced between two very solid pairs and which could well be played in three sets!

Finally, a little word for the French champion Alix Collombon, who will have, alongside Jessica castello, the possibility of taking revenge against Bea Gonzalez and Lucia Sainz. This obviously promises to be complicated but we are not immune to a new surprise on the WPT!
