They have fulfilled the predictions although, yes, they have had to fight until the end. The main seeds will be in the penultimate round of the first tournament of the season but, as happened in 2015, it was again demonstrated that equality is maximum.

Padel World Press .- For the first time in the history of WPT circuit, two of the matches of the quarterfinal round were played in the Central Court of the tournament, instead of in the Official Club, as was usual until now. Undoubtedly, that fact served to ratify the firm commitment made by World Paddle Tour to enhance the Women's Circuit.

In the first of them, Patty Llaguno and Eli Amatriain confirmed that they have started the campaign in a state of extraordinary form and, dominating from start to finish, they defeated Lorena Alonso-Nela Brito by 6-1 and 6-0.

In the following match played in the Central Court of the 3 Pavilion of Feria de Valencia, Mapi and Majo Sánchez Alayeto had to be used thoroughly to subdue Marta Ortega-Alba Galán. The pupils of Jorge Martinez were more successful in the decisive moments and won by 6-4 and 7-5.

On the other hand, in the Alfafar Sports Complex, Carolina Navarro-Cecilia Reiter demonstrated that Valencia is a 'plaza' in which they usually offer their best version. In 2015 they were runners-up and this year, they are already in the semifinals after solving a very complicated duel against the young couple who eliminated Cata Tenorio-Victoria Iglesias in the second round: Ari Sánchez-Tamara Icardo.

In a vibrant clash, full of emotion and with constant alternatives, Carol and Ceci made use of their experience to achieve victory for 6-1, 3-6 and 7-5 before a duo that can give much to talk about during the present season.

To finish, Alejandra Salazar-Marta Marrero made it very clear that this campaign will fight again to climb to the top of the Ranking. With a firm step, they eliminated Lucia Sainz-Gemma Triay (6-4 and 6-2) and already know that in their next engagement they will meet Carolina Navarro-Cecilia Reiter.

On Saturday, 23 in April and from the 10: 00 hours, will begin a semifinals that promise strong emotions.
