Ari Sanchez: ”I want to see a long term project”

It was a success from the start to the end of their first competition when the World Padel Tour started in Madrid. The aggressive left-handed Paula Josemaria, combined with the multifaceted Ari Sanchez, is looking forward to a long project together. 

— I think we fit very well. I believe that our style of play is a good match. Paula is a very aggressive player, and she covers the court well. I want to see a long-term project with Paula, and we want to improve every day, Ari Sanchez says. 

Paula Josemaria continues. 

— I feel so good both on and outside the court with Ari. It is a perfect match. 

During the first tournament, the team was unstoppable and won the final after two sets against Bea Gonzalez and Lucia Sainz. In Alicante, Gemma Triay and Alejandra Salazar were too good in the final, something Ari Sanchez talked about before the tournament. 

— We know that it will be difficult because the opponents will study us even more, and we were not favorites before the tournament in Madrid. We want to continue working hard, get a good result, and hope to win here in Alicante, says Ari Sanchez.

The next tournament is held in Vigo, and the pair are looking forward to a new Open-tournament. 

— When the season is finished, I hope that we are the team that everybody wants to beat. But the level of the female teams is so high, and there are a lot of teams that can win, says Paula Josemaria.
