Nice recovery for BC La Chaux-de-Fonds (BCC). For its first interclub meeting of 2022, the team from the Watchmaking Metropolis shared the challenge (4-4) with Union Fribourg-Tafers.
Away, the Bees did not start out as favorites against one of the favorites in the championship. With only one foreigner, the current penultimate national league A thwarted the forecasts.
The Pierrehumbert brothers impress
The brothers Maxime and Loris Pierrehumbert won their singles with a master hand.
The performance of the day is however to be credited to the duo made up of Mathias Bonny and Gilles Tripet. The two friends of the BCC won the men’s doubles 1 against the multiple Swiss champion Oliver Schaller and the Scotsman Alexander Dunn.
Khakimov wins men’s doubles
The latest success came from Noé Varrin and new Russian rookie Nikita Khakimov in men’s doubles. The latter has already demonstrated that it could become an important element in the mission to maintain Chaux-de-Fonniers.
This Sunday, January 16 (2 p.m.), the Abeilles will host Zurich at Les Crêtets.
