BOSS BARCELONA MASTER FINAL 2023

Boss Barcelona Master Final 2023; the youngest Master Final ever

The boss barcelona master final 2023 will have the youngest average age of any master final in world padel tour history..

05-12-2023 | 5 minutos de lectura-->

The 11th Master Final in the World Padel Tour era sees the competition return to the Palau Sant Jordi, the same venue for both the 2019 and the 2022 event, both with record-breaking attendance numbers at the time.

Seven players will make their Master Final debuts in 2023, the most since 2017 when eight players stepped onto the stage for the first time. 

Additionally, there will be no player over the age of 40 present at the Master Final - apart from reserve Fernando Belasteguin. This has happened only once before in World Padel Tour's maiden season, 2013, although the average age of that tournament was more than five years older than in 2023.

The new generation is here

The average age at the Boss Barcelona Master Final 2023 is 28 years and three months old, breaking 2021's record (29 years, nine months) for the youngest Master Final by a year and a half.

2021 and 2023 are the only two years where the average age has been under 30, underlining the sport's significant rejuvenation in recent years. This season alone, the records for youngest male and female finalists, youngest couple in a final, youngest title-winning couple, youngest couple to become the number ones and youngest player to become the number one have all been broken.

The average age of the seven debutants is just 23 years and four months , while the average age of the nine players from 2022 who will not return this season is over 35 years old. 

While there is still plenty of veteran presence at the Boss Barcelona Master Final 2023 - five players over the age of 35 - the emphasis lies on the young talent that is starting to cement itself at the top of the world.

Tapia – Coello and Brea – Gonzalez lift the title in Mexico!

The finals of the Mexico Open took place on Sunday, a day that saw the winners of the tournament announced and brought the regular season of the World Padel Tour to a close.

That’s how the Mexico Open finals went

Tapia and coello complete their perfect week in mexico.

Agustin Tapia and Arturo Coello haven’t relaxed after confirming their status as World Padel Tour number ones. The Argentine and the Spaniard closed a perfect week by winning the Mexico Open after defeating Tino Libaak and Leo Augsburger in the final, a repeat of the final of the La Rioja Open.

Tapia and Coello took the lead after a break in the fifth game, after the player from Catamarca won a golden ball with a stunning backhand drop shot. From then on, couple 1 maintained their advantage until the end of the set, winning it 6-4 without giving their opponents a break point.

Libaak and Augsburger , who had already come from a set down in the previous three rounds, were unable to do the same in the final. In the first game of the second set, the number one seeds broke their opponents’ serve again, an advantage that they managed to extend with another break, securing the final victory with a score of 6-2.

With this title, Agustin Tapia and Arturo Coello win their fourteenth title of the year and break their bad streak, as they hadn’t won any tournaments since the Paris Major at Premier Padel in September. In fact, on the World Padel Tour their last title came at the Malaga Open in July.

Leo Augsburger is just one win away from reaching the Barcelona Master Final. His defeat in the final puts Coki Nieto in the last tournament of this year.

Bea and Delfi claim their fifth World Padel Tour title in Mexico

With the absence of the number 1 pairing in 2023, Ari Sanchez and Paula Josemaria , and the early elimination of Gemma Triay and Marta Ortega , it was Bea Gonzalez and Delfi Brea who took advantage to add another title to their trophy cabinet after beating Tamara Icardo and Virginia Riera .

The first of the finals of the Mexico Open on Sunday started with a very even game. Neither couple was able to serve easily. Break opportunities were taking place, as well as breaks. However, after eight games, the score was 4-4. At that point it was Bea and Delfi that achieved a decisive break, which helped them to take a 6-4 lead in the first set of the match.

Tamara and Virginia , players characterised by their confidence, began to make unforced errors, which took their toll. On the other side of the court, the couple 3 was more successful and opened a gap in the set from the first game, managing to break Icardo’s serve. The good work of Delfi Brea , MVP of the match, was undoubtedly differential. Another break in the fifth game would be definitive, closing the match with a 6-2.

·         2024 calendar includes 25 tournaments in 18 countries across the world.

·         season will conclude with the premier padel tour finals, in barcelona., ·         calendar includes new destinations in the middle east, south america and europe, and returns to historic venues stade roland-garros and foro italico..

LONDON, DOHA, MADRID, ROME – 19 December 2023 – Premier Padel, the leading official professional padel tour, today announced its eagerly anticipated 2024 calendar. The 2024 season will see 25 tournaments spanning 18 countries in 5 continents taking place throughout the year, demonstrating Premier Padel’s ongoing commitment to reach new markets, grow the game globally and inspire more people to participate.

The season will begin on 26 February 2024 with the Riyadh P1 , taking place as part of Saudi Arabia’s Riyadh Season, and will be immediately followed by the Qatar Major . The tour will then move to Mexico and Venezuela in South America before coming to Brussels and Andalusia in April and May. Following this, the tour returns to South America – including Premier Padel’s first visit to Paraguay and Chile . The tour then swings back to Europe in June and July , before a mid-season break in August. The season resumes in Europe and the Middle East – including new Premier Padel locations Rotterdam , Dusseldorf , Sweden , Dubai, and Kuwait City , with further tournaments planned for new locations, before the Milan P1 closes the main part of the season, as it has done for the past two years.

The 2024 calendar will conclude with the first-ever edition of the Premier Padel Tour Finals which will take place in Barcelona on 18-22 December 2024 and will see the top-ranked pairs battle it out for the final trophy of the 2024 Premier Padel season.

Since launching in 2022, Premier Padel has become one of the fastest growing tours in world sport. Over 500 male players from around the world competed in Premier Padel tournaments in its first year, playing in some of the most iconic venues in sports history including at Stade Roland-Garros in Paris . Over 110 leading professional female players joined Premier Padel in March 2023. Premier Padel has secured multi-year broadcast agreements that cover 180+ countries reaching over 150 million households, while the first two Premier Padel seasons attracted almost 25 million views on YouTube.

In August 2023, Qatar Sports Investments ( QSI ) together with the International Padel Federation ( FIP ), backed by the Professional Padel Association ( PPA ) and the International Padel Players Association (IPPA), announced that an historic agreement had been reached with Damm, the owner of Setpoint Events which organises the World Padel Tour (WPT), for QSI to acquire WPT to create a single global professional padel tour – called Premier Padel – in 2024 under the governance of FIP. The 2024 Premier Padel Calendar will be the first season of the newly unified tour.

Nasser Al-Khelaïfi, Chairman of Premier Padel , said: “ We are delighted to announce our much-anticipated 2024 calendar. This year will be the first season of the newly unified Premier Padel tour, which will take the sport to the next level – both for the players, who we place at the heart of our tour, but also the whole padel ecosystem. We are looking forward to seeing Premier Padel excite and inspire fans in our fantastic established locations, but also emerging markets around the world as we look to grow the sport in every way. 2024 will be a landmark year for Premier Padel as we proudly continue to build one of the most exciting tours in global sport. ”

Luigi Carraro, President of the International Padel Federation , said: “ The 2024 season marks the beginning of a new era for Premier Padel as the tour expands to 25 tournaments held across 5 continents – and truly becomes padel’s first global professional tour. Together with our National Federations, we are pleased to see the sport grow audiences and participants all around the world , as the tour visits new cities and countries inspiring the next generation. At the International Padel Federation, we are proud to be creating an amazing legacy and building a fantastic future for our sport, with the players at the centre of shaping the tour. We look forward to 2024 being the most exciting season yet , for Premier Padel and also the sport of padel . ”

The Board of Directors of the Professional Padel Association (PPA) , said: “ The players are excited to play in the newly unified and expanded Premier Padel tour. We are looking forward to returning to cities where we have strong support and large fanbases, as well as visiting new locations, as we continue to work with Premier Padel to elevate padel to greater international prominence. ”

The Board of the International Padel Players Association (IPPA) , said: “After a successful first season as part of the Premier Padel tour, the IPPA, the female players’ association, is looking forward to a greater second season that is expanding to much more tournaments around the globe. We are delighted with Premier Padel’s commitment to building a successful sporting event for all and look forward to strengthening our relationship to continue contributing to the growth of padel, also for women, worldwide. We are all excited about the 2024 season.”

World Championship Finals Set at Thunderbowl

Tournament leader Matt Russo, defending champion EJ Tackett headline nine-player stepladder finals

The marathon of the PBA World Series of Bowling XV has reached its final destination as PBA World Championship qualifying has completed at Thunderbowl Lanes in Allen Park, Mich.

Matt Russo led the field in the season’s fourth major championship with a blistering 14,198 (+2,718) total pinfall. He averaged over 239 for his 61 games — 15 on the 35-foot Cheetah pattern, 15 on the 42-foot Scorpion pattern, 15 on the 48-foot Shark pattern and 16 on the 43-foot Earl Anthony pattern.

Russo will be joined in Sunday’s championship round (noon ET on FOX) by Jesper Svensson, Graham Fach and defending champion EJ Tackett.

Justin Knowles qualified fifth to earn top seed for Saturday’s semifinal stepladder (7 p.m. ET on FS1), where the fifth through ninth qualifiers will compete for the final berth in Sunday's finals.

Knowles will await the winner of 19-year-old Eric Jones, Kyle Sherman, Packy Hanrahan and Michael Martell.

        View this post on Instagram                       A post shared by PBA TOUR (@pbatour)

Russo led the left-handed-heavy field primarily using reactive equipment. He used urethane on the short Cheetah pattern and in Friday’s final round of match play — which he said was a safety move to hold onto the lead — and reactive equipment for the vast majority of the other 46 games.

“I just can’t believe how well I bowled the last week and a half,” Russo said. “I think it'll all set in when I bowl on Sunday. From missing the first cut, to winning a title and making another show, to now bowling for a major championship is phenomenal. 

“To me, this is a win already,” Russo added. “I've won a title this week and led the World Championship. I'm gonna bowl for a major. I can't control what anybody else does. The only thing I can do is bowl my best game on that pair that I’ve bowled on a decent amount and if the pins go my way, fantastic.”

Svensson, who qualified second, said he tried to stay present as he transitioned from fighting Russo for the top seed to staving off Fach, Tackett and Knowles for the second seed.

“I never felt there was anybody more deserving of the top seed than Matt. Throughout the week he bowled fantastic. I feel like second was the best I could get and I’m definitely happy with that,” Svensson said. “When I won my only major title (the 2016 PBA Tournament of Champions), I was the No. 2 seed so I’ve got good memories from that. I've lost a couple of majors from the one-seed, so I'll take the two-seed for now and see how that works out.”

Fach began the day in 16th place, sitting 236 pins behind third place. The Canadian southpaw shot 300 in the first game of match play and said “We’ve got nowhere to go but up. Why not climb high?”

“My arm swing was loose because there was nowhere to go but up. I just would not let myself believe than I was in 10th, eighth, sixth, third,” Fach said. “It still hasn’t sunk in yet. In my mind, I was still 16th and thinking I still had nothing to lose. Obviously that mentality worked, so I'm going to try and hold on to it for as long as I can.”

Tackett led qualifying in this event a year ago. He defeated Jason Belmonte in a thrilling title match to win the 2023 World Championship, the capstone to his dominant Player of the Year campaign. With a win on Sunday, following his Shark Championship victory on Thursday night, Tackett could skyrocket to the forefront of the 2024 Player of the Year conversation.

“This wasn’t one of those deals where I matched up. I bowled really well,” Tackett said. “I got nine a lot this week. These pins were hard to knock down. I just kept myself in it and that was pretty much all I did this whole week.”

IT'S HIS TIME! THE YEAR OF EJ CONTINUES! @ejt300 claims his 2nd major title, and 5th overall title, of the 2023 PBA season winning the 2023 PBA World Championship Finals presented by @PabstBlueRibbon pic.twitter.com/wgXl6TnNn8 — PBA Tour (@PBATour) April 23, 2023

In the 2023 U.S. Open, Knowles earned the No. 9 seed and climbed the ladder, losing to No. 5 seed Kyle Troup. On Saturday, in a bowling center about an hour from his home of Okemos, Knowles gets a chance at redemption.

“I got maybe too comfortable with all the wins, and I forgot to have that killer instinct,” Knowles said of his loss to Troup. “I felt, especially late in that match with Kyle, I got too easy with it, too lackadaisical. I wasn't hungry for it, wasn’t chasing it. I was just enjoying the moment. Now I feel like let's work on it. Let's chase it. I'm going to attack it with a different mindset.”

The 19-year-old Jones earned the No. 6 seed and will make his TV debut on the national tour, but his rise to the national tour spotlight has been years in the making.

As a non-member, Jones became the youngest player to win a PBA Regional Tour title at 15 in Oct. 2020. Five months later, he competed in the 2021 PBA Junior National Championship, falling to Landin Jordan in the televised finals. He finished fourth in the 2021 PBA Jonesboro Open (coincidentally Russo's first career title) in a non-televised stepladder.

Looking back on his PBA Jr. experience, Jones drew an interesting lesson: “Don’t bowl that good.”

“Every single shot I threw that show was on top of the others and it made the lanes so cliffed,” Jones said. “I need to be smarter in practice. I couldn’t have bowl better; it's probably the best game I've ever bowled. I’m confident with how I handle myself on TV. I just need to set the pair better for myself.”

The seventh-seeded Sherman finds himself in a similar position to Jason Belmonte in Tuesday’s Scorpion Championship as the lone right-hander in a stepladder. While Sherman did not cash, let alone make the cut, in any of the three animal pattern events, he performed consistently well all week.

• Cheetah: 22nd place, five pins behind 21st and 45 pins behind 16th
• Scorpion: 24th place, 22 pins behind 21st and 92 pins behind 16th
• Shark: 23rd place, eight pins behind 21st and 36 pins behind 16th

The 30-year-old has battled numerous injuries over the years and spends 60-90 minutes before every round of competition warming up his body. He said his main focus this week was finishing qualifying and trying to keep his body in line as he battles injuries that get progressively worse as he bowls.

Injuries haven’t been the only reason Sherman only suited up for two PBA Tour events this season before the WSOB: Sherman said he and his girlfriend Amanda Greene welcomed their daughter, Mya, into the world seven weeks ago.

Sherman also said he received added motivation after the New Jersey KingPins dropped him from the PBA Elite League last month.

Hanrahan, who finished as the runner-up in the Scorpion Championship to Russo, will have to win seven consecutive matches to set up a rematch.

The final player on Saturday’s show, Martell, would have won the 2023 USBC Masters at Thunderbowl Lanes had it not been for the fire-breathing dragon known as Anthony Simonsen.

“This building has always given me what I like. We always joke about me moving to Detroit because I match up that well in this building,” Martell said. “It was calming to know I was in a setting that I had bowled well in before — and that was about the only calming thing about those last couple of games.”

After the first game of the second round of match play, Martell sat in fifth place. He then dropped to seventh, then eighth, then 11th. The one-handed southpaw hovered between 11th and ninth until the position round.

“I thought I was dead with a couple games to go,” Martell added. “I was not bowling well. I did not know what to expect. I kept looking at scores, which I usually don't do, and it got tighter and tighter and tighter. The last game, four of us were bowling for two spots.”

Martell found himself in a battle with Hanrahan, Belmonte and Keven Williams for the final two berths in the position round. Hanrahan shot 238 on the high end of Thunderbowl to lock himself onto the show, unbeknownst to the other three competitors on the low end.

Martell squeaked by Belmonte with a 208-204 win, but Williams had an opportunity to go around both players with a strike in his 10th frame. The two-handed lefty knocked over seven pins and came up four pins shy of Martell.

“I didn't believe it just because his ball reaction on that pair had been really, really good,” Martell said. “He missed a spare earlier in that game, so it shouldn't even come down to that if I'm being honest. He had thrown the previous three shots as perfectly as he could throw. I wasn't expecting him to throw it the way he did (in the 10th). All you need is a pulse, and I'm very grateful that he was the one to give me the lifeline.”

Martell will kick off Saturday’s semifinal stepladder against Hanrahan Saturday at 7 p.m. Eastern on FS1.

The player who emerges from that stepladder will advance to Sunday’s championship round, airing live at noon ET on FOX.

La presentación contó con la presencia de la alcaldesa de Marbella, María Ángeles Muñ oz, una circunstancia que agradeció José Bernal, organizador, impulsor y alma mater de una competición que ha venido para quedarse. “No existe mejor lugar para la presentación de este evento que en las magníficas instalaciones del Hard Rock Hotel Marbella” destacó.

El elenco completo en al acto fue Almudena Mosteiro (subdirectora del Hard Rock Marbella), José Bernal, Ángeles Muñoz (alcaldera), Alejandro Alonso (exjugador del Mónaco) y Vanesa Zárate (concejala del ayuntamiento de Marbella).

El carisma de los jugadores que participan en este torneo es colosal. Y, como dice Bernal. “Esto repercute en beneficios e impacto económico para la ciudad”. También agradeció la confianza a los patrocinadores que hacen posible este evento, Ayuntamiento de Marbella, Hard Rock Hotel Marbella, Renfe, Grupo Trocadero, Simmons y Cruzcampo.

Alejandro Alonso, exjugador del Mónaco explicó que para los jugadores es una inmensa alegría y satisfacción poder reunirse durante tres días para compartir la pasión del pádel y pasar momentos con sus familia s en un lugar tan espectacular como es Marbella. La primera edil del Ayuntamiento ensalzó: “La gran importancia que tiene para Marbella este torneo tanto a nivel deportivo cómo turístico y su gran repercusión mediática.

El empuje y entusiasmo de José Bernal, destacado jugador de pádel, ha hecho que esta idea transgresora de traer a glorias del fútbol para competir en su deporte haya cuajado de manera tan espectacular. Turismo y deporte se dan la mano y el resultado es un torneo de alto nivel, con grandes jugadores y en un marco incomparable como es Marbella. El III World Pádel Soccer se ha hecho un hueco entre los grandes acontecimientos deportivos en la Costa del Sol.

Des deals avec Neymar, surpris par Ronaldo et charmé par Bruxelles : rencontre avec Adel Aref, directeur du Tour Premier Padel

Adel aref, qui était le chef de cabinet de nasser al-khelaïfi, est le directeur du tour premier padel. il est séduit par la gare maritime et l’élégance belge ainsi que l’affluence dès le premier jour..

Entre deux appels et deux mains à serrer, le directeur du Tour Premier Padel Adel Aref s’est posé dans l’ombre du court central de la Gare Maritime. Sa discrétion saute aux yeux dans un premier temps. Pourtant, il a des yeux partout. Il voit tout. Il entend tout. Une véritable tour de contrôle. Avec son équipe, ce Tunisien (44 ans) est responsable de toute la question sportive. Il a pour mission que chacune des 24 étapes du circuit roule à la perfection. “Je suis responsable de tout ce qui touche au circuit pendant la semaine : joueurs, médias, digital, transport, hospitality, télévision,…” , dit-il.

De Doha au padel en passant par le PSG : " Nous avons été élus à cinq reprises le meilleur tournoi du circuit.”

Ancien top 300 sur le circuit junior de tennis, il a changé de direction à cause d’une blessure au dos. Il s’est réorienté vers l’arbitrage au plus haut niveau en devenant badge d’or. “J’étais le plus jeune arbitre de chaise” , s’amuse-t-il. Dans le même temps, il a été repéré par le président du PSG, Nasser al-Khelaïfi qui est président-directeur général de BeINSport et président de la fédération de tennis du Qatar. “Il m’a nommé directeur du marketing du service des joueurs pour le tournoi de Doha , confie Adel Aref. Nous avons été élus à cinq reprises le meilleur tournoi du circuit.”

guillement Je ne connaissais même pas le hors-jeu. Je me suis retrouvé à dealer avec des stars comme Neymar

En 2011, il suit NAK et passe au PSG où il occupe la fonction prestigieuse de directeur du cabinet du président. “Je m’occupais de tout ce qui touche au business de Nasser al-Khelaïfi.” Il en profite pour glisser une anecdote. “Moi, j’étais nul en football. Je ne connaissais même pas le hors-jeu. Je me suis retrouvé à dealer avec des stars comme Neymar. Un jour, le président m’a demandé d’être au taquet le soir car Ronaldo débarquait. Moi, je pensais à Cristiano, mais c’était le Brésilien.”

Manager de sa compatriote Ons Jabeur, il bosse également pour le fonds souverain Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) qui a acquis le PSG et le padel mondial. En mars 2022, Premier Padel a lancé son circuit en parallèle à celui du World Padel Tour. La période était agitée car les joueurs étaient balancés entre deux entités. En septembre 2023, QSI a racheté le circuit pour réunir tous les joueurs et toutes les joueuses sous la même bannière.

Premier Padel vit donc sa troisième saison, mais la première comme unique circuit international. Adel Aref est présent sur les 24 étapes de l’année sans omettre les 'finals' à Barcelone. L’étape de Bruxelles est importante car Premier Padel vit son premier tournoi sur le sol européen.

Bruxelles et ses charmes : “Un site magnifique et unique”

guillement En plus, le tournoi est organisé avec classe et élégance. On voit que le directeur (NDLR, Vincent Laureyssens) a mis l’accent sur la finesse et le raffinement. Adel Aref

Soucieux du détail et en quête perpétuelle de perfection, le Français est tombé sous le charme de Bruxelles, ma belle. “Le premier atout, c’est ce site magnifique et unique” , s’exclame-t-il sur un ton théâtral. “Un tel cadre est très rare sur le circuit. En plus, le tournoi est organisé avec classe et élégance. On voit que le directeur (NDLR, Vincent Laureyssens) a mis l’accent sur la finesse et le raffinement. Il a rassemblé de nombreux invités. L’hospitalité est très soignée. On a l’impression d’être dans un musée.”

Le public au rendez-vous : "Une affluence impressionnante”

La troisième édition du Lotto Brussels Premier Padel confirme une tendance. Les Belges raffolent de ce spectacle. L’affluence du mardi avait déjà battu un record qui se confirme de soir en soir (mercredi soir nouveau record avec environ 10.000 personnes). “Je suis vraiment très impressionné” , confirme l’homme qui se rend sur tous les tournois à travers le monde. “Au Vénézuela, il est classique de voir beaucoup de monde dès le premier tour, mais, en Europe, c’est plus rare. À Bruxelles, les spectateurs ont répondu présent dès le premier jour du tournoi.”

Tour Premier Padel

La manche belge est devenue un rendez-vous prisé par les joueurs qui attendent leur venue dans la capitale de l’Europe. La preuve, c’est que tous les meilleurs mondiaux sont présents alors qu’habituellement un P2 réunit 50 % des tops joueurs. “Le marché belge est important à nos yeux , confirme-t-il. Nous sommes au cœur de l’Europe. Le président de la fédération internationale, Luigi Carraro, est venu en personne. Vincent (Laureyssens) a invité de nombreux hommes politiques et sportifs comme le président du COIB, Jean-Michel Saive. Pour nous, c’est essentiel de voir toutes ces personnalités pour promouvoir le padel.”

Le défi ? La reconnaissance olympique : “On y travaille chaque semaine”

Tel est le paradoxe du padel. Il suscite un grand engouement de la part des pratiquants et du monde politique, mais il reste un très jeune sport qui doit encore se développer. Aujourd’hui, Premier Padel offre une qualité comparable à celle du tennis en termes d’organisation, mais il reste encore beaucoup de chantiers. Le premier ? Une reconnaissance olympique. Adel Aref reste évasif sur l’avancée des négociations. “Nous avons besoin de cette reconnaissance olympique. On y bosse chaque semaine. Nous voyageons dans les pays où le CIO est présent. Nous sommes actifs avec Premier Padel sur tous les continents avec quatre étapes en Asie (Arabie saoudite, Qatar, EAU et Koweit), six en Amérique du Sud (Mexique X2, Vénézuela, Paraguay, Argentine et Chili), treize en Europe (Belgique, Espagne X3, France X2, Italie X3, Pays-Bas, Allemagne, Finlande et Suède) et une en Afrique (Égypte). ”

La conquête du monde, tel est le challenge d’un sport qui a été durant plus de 40 ans la propriété exclusive de l’Argentine et de l’Espagne. “Nous bossons à fond sur le développement en Europe, aux États-Unis et en Asie sans oublier l’Océanie. Nous avons de superbes ambassadeurs à travers le monde avec, par exemple, en Australie, Pat Rafter. Une des forces du padel, c’est de pouvoir compter sur des personnalités influentes comme Beckham, Zidane, Ibrahimovic, Messi, Neymar qui était présent à Riyad en début de saison. Je songe aussi à Eva Longoria et tant d’autres.”

Seul le temps permettra de retrouver une plus grande diversité dans le top 100. À l’heure actuelle, seuls sept pays ont placé un joueur dans le top 100 : 69 Espagnols, 19 Argentins, cinq Italiens, trois Brésiliens, deux Chiliens, un Français et un Suédois. “Nous avons besoin de temps. Avec les wild cards distribuées aux pays qui organisent des tournois, on va développer la diversité. Les joueurs locaux reçoivent leur chance.”
