COUVERCELLE CHAMPIONNATS DE FRANCE 2020 TALENCE, ACTE II Pour la deuxième année consécutive, Talence accueillera les finales messieurs et dames des championnats de France par équipes Pro A 2020, qui se dérouleront pour la première fois le même jour, soit le samedi 7 décembre 2019. Chez les dames, comme l’an passé, le TC Paris sera opposé à l’ASPTT Metz, tandis que chez les messieurs, le TC Quimperlé affrontera Villa Primrose. Ces deux affiches s’annoncent particulièrement ouvertes. Chez les dames, le TC Paris, tenant du titre, tentera de décrocher un septième titre dans cette compétition (après 1988, 1989, 1990, 2015, 2017 et 2019). Le club de la capitale, emmené par Pauline Parmentier et Tatjana Maria, a assuré sa qualification pour la finale en s’imposant à domicile face au TC Saint-Dié lors de la dernière journée. L'ASPTT Metz, vainqueur du premier titre de son histoire il y a 2 ans (2018), aura à cœur de prendre sa revanche sur le TC Paris qui l'avait battu en finale, l'an passé. Le club de la ligue du Grand-Est, qui compte dans ses rangs notamment la Belge Ysaline Bonaventure et la Russe Ekaterina Alexandrova, affiche le plein de confiance après avoir réalisé un sans-faute en phase de poules avec 4 victoires en 4 matchs.

    Ortisei, 28 settembre 2017 COMUNICATO STAMPA 1/17 Il ritorno di Seppi a Ortisei dopo tre anni – Challenger ATP in Val Gardena dal 7 al 15 ottobre – Quattro Top 100 al via La cifra tre ha un ruolo importante all’ottava edizione dello Sparkasse ATP Challenger Val Gardena Südtirol, il torneo di tennis più importante in Alto Adige presentato stamattina nella Sparkasse Academy del main sponsor del torneo in presenza della stella assoluta: Andreas Seppi che torna a giocare il torneo di casa dopo tre anni e cercherà di imporsi per la terza volta a Ortisei dopo le vittorie ottenute nel 2013 e 2014. Per vedere Seppi al via in Val Gardena gli organizzatori hanno fatto una scelta azzeccata. Il torneo non si svolgerà più nella seconda settimana di novembre come dalla prima edizione maschile nel 2010 ma sarà anticipato di un mese. Nel 2017 si gioca dal 7 al 15 di ottobre. Invariato il montepremi di 64.000 euro. Primo match di Seppi martedì 10 ottobre alle ore 18 Ovviamente Seppi sarà ancora una volta la grande attrazione del torneo altoatesino. Il 33-enne di Caldaro dopo il matrimonio con Michela Bernardi di Ortisei il 10 settembre 2016 si sente ancora di più a casa in Val Gardena. Seppi ritorna volentieri sui campi veloci di Roncadizza, sui quali ha giocato sempre benissimo e vanta un bilancio di 14 vittorie in 15 partite. L’unica sconfitta è quella contro il tedesco Benjamin Becker nella finale del 2012. Nelle finali del 2013 e 2014 rispettivamente contro Simon Greul e Matthias Bachinger, entrambi della Germania, si è imposto invece il beniamino del pubblico.
