Badminton: Baptiste Rolin Vice-Champion from Belgium to Gembloux

The good surprise in mixed double

The head of the Bad Namurois could have crossed the young and promising road Fernelmontois Adam Janssens (beaten 21-13, 21-12 in 1/16th), on the Gembloutois terrains. “But I had the opportunity to see him at work. It’s a shame, I would have liked to play against him, the next round. I knew him when he was at the training center and we kept good contact “specifies Baptiste, who however experienced a “nice surprise” in a mixed double, with Karla Henry. “We went to the semi-finals, facing the number 1 series, after eliminating the duo who had beaten us in a tournament two weeks ago, then a very strong pair in quarters. We played really well.”

It will also be noted that in double gentlemen, the duo of Baf Fernelmont, composed of Tanguy Dussein and Ronald Goffin, forced his opponent of the 1/16th to go to the third set (21-16, 17-21 and 21-18).

For Baptiste, the time is for recovery, before resuming training. “I no longer have a tournament until the beginning of March, in Portugal. I will love with other international meetings, in Poland and in the Netherlands”concludes the new vice-champion of Belgium.
