Two players fight for the last spot in the Tour Finals
With only one competition left, it is now clear that the last spot for the Tour Finals on the women's side will be decided today between Alejandra Alonso and Tamara Icardo. Aranza Osoro, on the other hand, is out of the race after yesterday's loss.
The Tour Finals, which will be played between 19 and 22 December in Barcelona, are the highlight of the year in the world of padel. The 16 highest-ranked players, based on their 22 best results of the year, qualify for the competition. On the women's side, 15 of the spots are already secured, but the battle for the last ticket will be decided in the Milano Premier Padel P1.
Alejandra Alonso secured an important victory alongside Andrea Ustero to advance to the semi-finals. The win means that Alonso now holds 16th place in the race. Meanwhile, Tamara Icardo, together with Claudia Jensen, managed to win their match and keep their dreams of the Tour Finals alive.
Aranza Osoro, who was in the best position before yesterday's matches, lost her round of 16 match against Delfi Brea and Bea González. The loss means she is now officially out of the race to the Tour Finals.
Today's matches will be deciding. Alejandra Alonso and Andrea Ustero will face Delfi Brea and Bea González, while Tamara Icardo and Claudia Jensen will face Gemma Triay and Claudia Fernandez. If only one of the players wins, it will secure the last ticket. If both lose, it will be Alonso who secures the ticket.
