The four best of the year, protagonists in the finals of Vienna

The four best couples of the year will be this Sunday the protagonists of the finals of the Vienna Open, the first professional event in Austria where padel is still a testimonial sport with a lukewarm repercussion of fans, but an important bet in investment for WPT in its expansive attempt. In the women's final, Gemma Triay and Alejandra Salazar return against Ari Sanchez and Paula Josemaria for the fifth time this year, and Galan and Lebron against Sanyo Tapia, who have won the three finals played. The Austrians may not be able to taste these matches at their best, but they have the makings of matches at the highest level.

The women's semifinal between Ari and Paula against Saturday's debutants, Carla Mesa and Claudia Jensen, was tremendously exciting: 5-7, 7-5, 7-5. The focus of attention was on Claudia, because with only 16 years old, she played with Paula, both left-handed; but the reality is that Carla brings greatness to the couple, and with her game they put in trouble the second-best couple in the world. Follow the link and see best app for IPL betting.

The other semifinals went to two sets. Tamara Icardo and Delfi Brea fell 6-4 and 6-3 to the number one pair, Ale and Gemma, but they are already in the semifinals, another step in their recovery. They open the day (11:00) with the women's final.

Ale Galan and Lebron beat Belasteguin and Coello again (6-2 and 6-4), who are getting closer but still far from the number ones. Sanyo and Tapia are already on the verge of overtaking Paquito Navarro and Di Nenno in the overall ranking: 7-6 and 6-1. The lobs against Tapia and Sanyo were of little use in this match. Read more sports news here.
