Botello and Ruiz join the big boys in Mijas

Fighting for a place in the semi finals of the Cervezas Victoria Mijas Open 2018 were two time Challenger winners Uri Botello and Javier Ruiz, and the number four seeds Paquito Navarro and Juan Martín Díaz.

Botello and Ruiz weren't overawed by the occasion and brought out their best padel. They were brave and played with the conviction that their game would get the job done. And it worked wonders as they took the first break of the match at 3-2.. They maintained their advantage and served for the set but Paquito Navarro brought out his magic wand to break back but they lost their following service game nd this time Ruiz and Botello said thank you very much and claimed the set 7-5. The players coached by Raul Arias had found the way to dominate Paquito and Juan Martin and they continued applying it in the second set. They didn't let the occasion get to them and made the most of a break to win 6-4 and set up the most important moment of their careers.
