Paire s'offre Murray au 1er tour à Montpellier !

Paire s'offre Murray au 1er tour à Montpellier !

En voilà une qu'on n'avait pas du tout vue venir, on ne va pas se mentir. Toujours aussi imprévisible, Benoît Paire a sorti son tennis des grands soir ce lundi pour s'offrir une victoire de prestige sur Andy Murray au premier tour de l'Open Sud de France (2/6, 7/6, 6/3). Le Français signe là sa première victoire sur le circuit principal depuis Washington 2022, il y a 546 jours.

Alors qu'il restait sur trois défaites au premier tour aussi décevantes qu'inquiétantes, en qualifs de l'Open d'Australie puis sur le circuit Challenger, Paire est apparu transfiguré devant le public d'une Sud de France Arena en ébullition. Tous les ingrédients y étaient, du beau tennis, du suspens (le Français est passé à 2 points de la défaite) et donc une grosse ambiance.

De quoi bien rappeler que l'Avignonnais marche toujours autant à l'amour du public, seul à même d'allumer l'étincelle le poussant à sortir quelques tours de magie de son chapeau.

GBR Murray, Andy  [5]
