Seeded No. 2 in the Spanish Masters (Super 300 of the World Tour) which began on Tuesday and will end on Sunday in Madrid, the five-time French mixed doubles champions Thom Gicquel (Red Star Mulhouse) and Delphine Delrue (Chambly ), who lost a place this week in the world rankings (14th), perfectly negotiated their entry into the tournament this Wednesday in the round of 32.
The 2022 European vice-champions, who will aim for a new medal at Euro 2024 organized from April 8 to 14 in Saarbrücken, easily dominated an Algerian duo they had never met, Koceila Mammeri and Tanina Violette Mammeri, 46th and six-time African champions (21-13, 21-14).
This Thursday around 1 p.m., the French internationals will face the Spaniards Jacobo Fernandez and Paola Lopez, 131st, in the round of 16, for another unprecedented duel.
