Scudetto to Marco Garavini and Giacomo Gabellini, among the men, and to Nicole Nobile and Veronica Casadei, among the women, at the absolute beach tennis championships in Torregrande, on the Oristano seafront. Manuel Fois won in the men's singles. In the women's title instead goes to Maddalena Cini. In the mixed the champions are Riccardo Manenti and Giulia Renzi.
The Garavini-Gabellini pair won in the final against Luca Brasini from Cesena and Andrea Reginato from Sardinia: 6-4, 7-6. In the women's final, the top world players fell, Sofia Cimatti from Emilia (4 world titles in her palmares) and Greta Giusti (eighth in the international ranking and fifth in the Italian ranking). Nobile, originally from Cervia, and Casadei, from Rimini took the tricolor at tie break: 7-5, 6-7, 10-8.
In the previous days, the Sardinian Fois had won the men's singles title over former world champion Garavini with a result of 9-3. Among the women, Cini from Jesi won the singles final 9-7.
A bit of Sardinia in the mix with the success of Renzi from Pesaro paired with Manenti from Cagliari. Eolo Beach Sports will now host the Serie A and B finals of the national team championships until August 7th. «It was a successful bet - explains Simona Bonadonna, FITP Beach Tennis national manager - on the part of the Federation, the movement is growing, the numbers were slightly higher than those we obtained last year in Emilia Romagna. The movement responded positively to this invitation to Sardinia and we hope it can be one of the many events here."
