“I am very happy. This is my third consecutive FIP win (after the FIP Star Aguascalientes and the FIP Rise Santiago de Chile). It is very difficult to win, and winning three in a row… now it was Teo’s and my turn. We are very pleased”, Rubini emphasized at the end of the match. “We started by struggling through the first matches, but we managed to overcome them and win the tournament”, Gamondi added.
