Piacenza, Moriñigo-Arriola shine again

Just a step away from success in Almeirim, they won in Piacenza. Afonso Fazendeiro and Pedro Perry confirm a strong start to October in the CUPRA FIP Tour, which began with the final in the Portuguese FIP Bronze and continued with the Italian victory. The Portuguese pair defeated in the FIP Bronze Confapi final the young players Antonio Graupera – Argentine, born in 2008 – and Mariano Gonzalez, Paraguayan, born in 2007.

In the women’s draw, the win went to Teresa Moriñigo and Blanca Arriola, coming off an amazing September where they claimed the FIP Bronze title in Finland, reached the final of the FIP Silver in Lisbon, and the semifinals of the FIP Bronze in Alicante. The Spanish duo beat their final opponents, Italian Terranova and fellow Iberian Marisol Fernandez, 6-4 6-3. “We keep scoring points, Tere!” – said Arriola – “This title is another push to keep working every day.”

“Playing with you, Blanca, is a real joy” – added Moriñigo.
