FIP Rise Betsson Sweden II, double for Santigosa and Collado
February 26, 2024The FIP Rise Betsson Sweden II ended with the triumph of the same players from a month ago. At the Bon Padel in Gothenburg (Sweden), as had happened in January, it were Daniel Santigosa Sastre and Guillermo Collado Losada who won the tournament. In the final, the two Spaniards – who started as the number 8 seed – defeated 7-6 6-2 Pablo Castillo Valverde and Candido Jorge Alfaro (6), after losing the only set in the first round against Landaburu/Ochoa de Alda. It’s a magic moment for Santigosa and Collado, who had ended 2023 by winning another CUPRA FIP Tour tournament, the Rise in Mijas: Collado, by the way, had also become Under-18 World Champion in Asuncion.
In the women’s draw, it were Natividad Lopez Diaz and Laura Lujan Rodriguez, seeded number 8, who won in the final over Elena De La Rosa Ramos and Alba Gallardo Salvado. After losing the first set in a tiebreak, the match ended 6-7 7-5 6-3. For the two Spaniards, this is the second title in a row after the one they won last week in the FIP Promotion in Jaen. “With the head and with work the results come – said ‘Nati’ –. We want to go higher and higher”.
