The Bordeaux P2 padel semi-final line-up is set, and the day mainly delivered two awaited returns. In the women’s draw, Tamara Icardo and Claudia Jensen reached a Premier Padel semi-final for the first time in two months after Brussels. In the men’s draw, Paquito Navarro and Martin Di Nenno finally moved beyond the quarter-finals since reuniting, with a statement win over Juan Lebrón and Leo Augsburger.
Direct answer for readers looking for the Bordeaux P2 padel schedule: the semi-finals are played at the Patinoire Mériadeck on July 4 and 5, 2026, with a very strong women’s draw and two especially attractive men’s matches. The tournament is held indoors in Bordeaux as part of the Premier Padel circuit.
According to the International Padel Federation, No. 5 seeds Icardo/Jensen beat Claudia Fernandez and Sofia Araujo 6/4 2/6 6/2. Their next step will be even tougher: Paula Josemaria and Bea Gonzalez, who defeated Noa Canovas and Laia Rodriguez 6/3 6/2.
Icardo and Jensen restart their momentum
This result matters because Icardo and Jensen had not reached this stage on the Premier Padel circuit since the Belgium P2 in April. Their quarter-final also says something about their profile: after a real dip in the second set, they regained control in a clear third set and did not allow Fernandez and Araujo to turn the match into a full trap.
In the other half of the women’s draw, the seedings also held. Delfi Brea and Gemma Triay beat Marina Guinart and Veronica Virseda 6/0 7/6, while Ari Sanchez and Andrea Ustero defeated Ale Salazar and Ale Alonso 6/2 7/6. The Bordeaux P2 women’s last four therefore brings together established pairs, but with different stories: confirmation for the favourites, a rebound for Icardo/Jensen.
Navarro and Di Nenno finally break the ceiling
On the men’s side, the signal is just as strong. Since getting back together, Paquito Navarro and Martin Di Nenno had never gone beyond the quarter-finals. Their 6/3 7/5 win over Lebrón/Augsburger changes the reading of their tournament: it is not only a strong victory, it also gives them the right to face the current benchmark pair.
In the semi-finals, Navarro and Di Nenno will meet Arturo Coello and Agustin Tapia, who needed three sets to beat Momo Gonzalez and Lucas Campagnolo, 7/5 3/6 6/1. The match promises a clear clash of styles: the density and touch of Paquito/Di Nenno against the power, court coverage and finishing ability of the world No. 1s.
A packed Saturday at Mériadeck
The other men’s semi-final will pit Fede Chingotto and Ale Galán against Franco Stupaczuk and Mike Yanguas. Chingotto/Galán beat Coki Nieto and Jon Sanz 6/1 6/3, while Stupaczuk/Yanguas eliminated Juan Tello and Maxi Arce 7/5 6/4.
The programme therefore puts Bordeaux in an ideal position before the finals: four clear semi-finals, the favourites still alive, but also two pairs trying to turn a solid week into a real breakthrough. For Icardo/Jensen as for Navarro/Di Nenno, the last four is not only a reward: it is the test that will show whether this Bordeaux P2 can become a turning point.
