The facilities of the Quinta Marinha Racket Club vibrated with an intense morning of competition, in which it was decided which pairs will be present in the fight for the title of the National Couples Tournament. Chiqui Cepero-Juan Lebrón did not fail while, in the Women's Draw, only one of the two games was played.
Padel World Press .- Who was going to tell Chiqui Cepero and Juan Lebrón the day they were summoned by Jon García-Ariño to defend, for the first time in their respective careers, the Absolute Spanish National Team that they would be one step away from proclaiming themselves Champions of the World? Very excited about having the opportunity to represent our country, they were chosen to be the only male duo in the World Cup for Couples ... And, with firm steps, they managed to stand in the fight for the title match.
They started as 1 number seeds of the tournament but they also did it with the double 'pressure' of knowing that they were the rivals to beat and of being the only 'bullet' available for Spain to win a competition that, in 2014, Juani Mieres won -Matías Díaz
Despite their youth, Juan and Chiqui showed great maturity from the first round and knew how to manage that responsibility based on talent, talent, enthusiasm and enthusiasm.
In their third consecutive duel against a Brazilian pair, the two Cadiz dominated from start to finish and defeated by a double 6-3 Bruno Nakid-Lucas Cunha.
In the grand final, the faces will be seen with the Portuguese Diogo Rocha-Miguel Oliveira, who won by 6-4 and 7-6 to Brazilians Joao Pedro Flores-Stefano Flores.
Face and Cross in the Women's Tournament
Cara, that of the show of the first engagement; cross, the decision that did not play the second.
To start the day, Alejandra Salazar-Marta Marrero and Patty Llaguno-Eli Amatriain demonstrated why they are the number 1 and 3 couples in the world. In a vibrant duel full of spectacular actions, the four contestants gave themselves to the maximum to offer the fans a real match.
In the end, Ale and Marta were more successful in the decisive moments and achieved victory by 6-3 and 6-4, which prevented Patty-Eli could revalidate the title they already achieved in the Palma de Mallorca 2014 event .
Right after, it had to be played in clash between Lucia Sainz-Gemma Triay against Mapi and Majo Sánchez Alayeto. The twins went to warm up with the usual equipment of their brand (when the previous days had carried the selection) and, after several conversations between the heads of the Spanish Federation and the firm, no agreement was reached on the clothing that the players had to wear during the match, so they did not play the game and left the place in the final to Lucia and Gemma, current Champions of Spain.
