In less than two weeks, Félix Lebrun once again beat Simon Gauzy in the first round of a WTT this Sunday in Frankfurt. His brother Alexis will enter the tournament this Monday against the defending champion.
A week after his WTT coronation at home in Montpellier, Félix Lebrun once again got off to a perfect start to his WTT tournament in Frankfurt. Once again opposed, as soon as he entered the running, to the double medalist of Paris 2024, Simon Gauzy lost in four sets (11-3, 8-11, 12-10, 11-8). After snatching a third set, Félix Lebrun took a definitive advantage, bringing him closer to a victory, sending him to the 8th final. In the next round, the Frenchman will play either the Australian Nicholas Lum or the South Korean Jaehyun An.
The eldest of the Lebrun siblings, Alexis, for her part, will have a lot to do this Monday. He will play his 16th final against the defending champion, the Taiwanese Lin Yun-Juseeded No. 8 in Germany. In the round of 16, the French champion could meet up with an old acquaintance: Dang Qiu. Alexis Lebrun outclassed the German last month in the quarter-finals during his campaign leading him to the title of European champion. As a reminder, this WTT in Frankfurt represents the last global event before the Finals bringing together the 32 best elements in the world.
