Spectacular weekend by Team NOX. Things were already looking very promising on Saturday when 5 members of Team NOX reached the semi-finals at the WPT Granada Open. Miguel Lamperti and Franco Stupaczuk in the men´s category and Gemma Triay, Lucía Sainz and Ariana Sánchez in the women’s category were all just one step away from the final.
On Sunday, our Team completed an historic double. First, Gemma and Lucía left Ariana Sánchez and Marta Ortega with no chance in a women´s final where we were able to see 3 out of the 4 players in the final sporting the colours of Team NOX. It was a well-deserved victory for the Menorca and Barcelona players and a great week for the player from Reus.
Then, Franco Stupaczuk was crowned champion with a brutal display of play, offering a padel master class to stage a comeback after losing the first set (2/6 7/6 6/2), thus defeating the number 1 ranked players of the WPT rankings. Amazing tournament for the player from Chaco Province.
But the good news didn´t just come from Granada. In Malaga our warrior Vanesa Alonso was crowned Seniors World Champion in two different categories: teams with the Spanish national side and also in doubles in the +35 category.
In turn, the junior NOX Team did not want to miss out and also joined the party of great results. Milena Rojas and Noa Cánovas took the title in Junior Master Final held in Mallorca, while Alexandra Torralba reached the final and Roberto Lorente reached the semi-finals after both had a great tournament.
