Defending champion TC Boulogne-sur-Mer enters the new French Pro A tennis championship as the team to beat in Pool A, Fédération Française de Tennis reported.
The club secured its first national title a year ago in Grenoble. President Franck Paque leads a squad that features top-tier singles and doubles depth for the 2026–2027 campaign, according to Fédération Française de Tennis.
Loaded Roster Shapes Pool A
The Boulogne-sur-Mer lineup includes Belgium’s Alexander Blockx alongside Frenchmen Titouan Droguet, Térence Atmane, Hugo Gaston, and Sascha Gueymard-Wayenburg. Doubles specialists Sadio Doumbia and Hugo Nys reinforce the team, joined by the Masters-qualified pair of Albano Olivetti and Théo Arribagé.
TC Boulogne-Billancourt presents a primary challenge in Pool A, anchored by Arthur Rinderknech, Benjamin Bonzi, Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard, and Italy’s Mattia Bellucci. TC Loon-Plage also fields a competitive roster featuring the Netherlands’ Botic van de Zandschulp and Germany’s Yannick Hanfmann.
Thionville Moselle adds further depth to the group with Valentin Royer, Alexander Shevchenko, and Harold Mayot. Meanwhile, SNUC Tennis and TC Marignane look to secure their standing in the division.
Clermont Leads Open Pool B
Pool B offers more unpredictable results, though the CT Clermontois enters with a strong trio in Luca Van Assche, Arthur Géa, and Kyrian Jacquet. The Oise club supports them with Damir Dzumhur of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Clément Tabur, Ugo Blanchet, and Dan Added.
Villa Primrose challenges in Pool B with a roster featuring Belgium’s Raphaël Collignon, Alexandre Müller, Pierre-Hugues Herbert, Hugo Grenier, and David Goffin. SATC Porte du Hainaut relies on an international group including Argentina’s Marco Trungelliti, Finland’s Otto Virtanen, and Laurent Lokoli.
TC Annecy-le-Vieux and TC Paris round out the pool alongside TC Quimperlé, which features Spain’s Nikolas Sanchez Izquierdo and Inaki Montes de la Torre.
