Geens passes the 2nd round in Marseille: heading for the final hurdle
The hurdle was known, and they cleared it: after a solid start, Geens and Dylan Guichard secured their 2nd qualifying round at the FIP Platinum in Marseille. Facing Marcel Font / Iago Fuertes Leonardo, the pair did the job and earned the right to play the final round.
Score: 6/4 6/4
Score: 6/4 6/4. A win in straight sets that mainly allows them to stay in the rhythm of qualifying: to advance quickly, without letting the match settle in, and to save energy for the next step.
Next up: final round, change of scenery
Useful reminder: qualifying matches are first played at CAP7 Padel, before the turning point to the Palais des Sports for the rest of the tournament. Tuesday’s order of play specifically schedules the 3rd round (final qualifying round) in the afternoon.
