The Spanish/Argentine team imposed their longer experience with padel to defeat the guys from Twente for a tight 6/4 6/4.  For the semifinals, they faced seed #2 of the tournament, the experienced Bogaart/Schuilenburg, to continue their road to Championship, for a close 5/7 7/6(8-6) 7-5.

On Sunday, for the Championship finals Espona/Cañas faced the #1 seed and current no1. in the Dutch Padel Circuit Peter Bruijsten, partnering with the always solid Coen Beltman. The final’s result was for the visitors once more for 7-6 6-3.
