Triay and Ortega, the happiness of the n.2: "Together we continue to grow"

In recent days, Delfi Brea said that she feels ready, along with Bea Gonzalez, to snatch the title of second-best pair in the world from the Triay/Ortega duo. This statement clearly motivated the actual number two pair, who soared into the finals of the Rome Major, playing high-quality padel and leaving their rivals with crumbs. "The key? We stepped onto the court fully focused on each match," Gemma said. "We played excellent matches. We have been playing together for about a month, and our level improves every week. That's what satisfies me the most. It's not easy to achieve such results in such a short time, but I knew I could trust Marta. She was number one, she plays great, and together we can win tournaments.” 

"Playing the final in the first women's Major, "Martita” added, “it's a dream come true. But it's not over: now we'll try to rest as much as possible to be ready for Sunday. We have a great opportunity ahead. Despite playing together for a short time, we manage to beat established pairs who have been competing side by side for a long time and have a high level. It gives us confidence and pushes us to work even harder.”

Catalan player Triay can consider herself an adopted Roman: she found love in the Eternal City, she is an honorary member of CC Aniene (who won the premier A league championship), and whenever she can, she happily comes to Rome. "I love the city," she said. "For me, it's like playing at home. I am really happy to experience a moment like this right here." To complete the dream, a victory is missing. "Preferences for opponents? None, it will be a tough match regardless. Both Sanchez/Josemaria and Brea/Gonzalez are playing at a very high level. I hope," she said with a laugh, "that their semifinal goes on for a long time and that they get really tired."
