Piacenza, Gayone-Kviatkovski and Garcia-Fernandez the pairs to beat

Manuel Gayone and Kevin Kviatkovski are the top names at the FIP Bronze Confapi in Piacenza, Italy, one of twelve tournaments across the FIP – CUPRA FIP Tour and Premier Padel circuits taking place this week. The Argentinians lead a 32-pair draw that also features Mexican talent Diego Arredondo, teaming up with Spaniard Pablo Reina. Among the Italians, Alessandro Tinti and Lorenzo Romano, as well as Noa Bonnefoy/Michele Brambilla, stand out.

After two finals and one title (the FIP Bronze Denmark) in the past month on the CUPRA FIP Tour, Aitana Garcia is back on court for the second straight week alongside Carla Fernandez, with whom she reached last week’s FIP Silver final in Ivory Coast. The top seeds are followed by Carla Fitó and Patricia Araus, and by the Italian duo Caterina Baldi and Giulia Sussarello.
