2025 Golden State Open IRT Recap

The IRT and LPRT were both at the Golden State Open in Pleasanton, CA in mid-October. This is the second time in two months that the two tours were together, so we had another somewhat rare Pro Mixed Doubles event. 

Event Executive Summary: Moscoso won his 10th career singles title (he’s now 14th all time) and his third straight major Mixed Pro Doubles title (to go along with the 2023 and 2025 World Singles & Doubles titles; this time with Gaby Martinez). On the LPRT side, Maria Jose Vargas won her 13th career title, tied for 10th ever, and takes over World #1.

Here’s a round by round recap of the IRT Men’s Pro draw.

In the round of 32:

• Robbie Collins dropped the first game to Wayne Antone 15-1, then came back to win 15-10 and 11-0 afterwards.
• National Junior Team member DJ Mendoza grabbed the first game against Bolivian veteran Kadim Carrasco, but couldn’t finish, losing in three.
• Bolivian Junior debutant Santiago Borja certainly made #2 Javier Mar take notice, pushing him to 15-14, and 15-11.We love seeing new faces!

In the round of 16:

• Jaime Martell made fast work of Thomas Carter 15-7, 15-3 in the 8/9 seed matchup
• Andree Parrilla came back from a blowout game 1 loss to edge Diego Garcia in three, winning the tiebreaker 11-9.
• Kadim Carrasco earned his first career pro IRT tier 1 quarterfinal with a walkover injury against Alan Natera. Natera had major knee surgery earlier this year and struggled a bit in his round of 32 match against a junior, and had to step out of this match.
• Jordy Alonso squeaked past Diego Gastelum 15-6,15-14.
• Conrrado Moscoso crushed Bolivian native turned Argentine Gerson Miranda 15-0, 15-2.
• Lastly, the big result of the round: #2 Mar had to retire after losing the first game to Bolivian phenom Jhonathan Flores.

In the Quarters, all four matches went to tiebreaker:

• Rodrigo Montoya was stretched to three against countryman Martell but advanced.
• Parrilla held off Adam Manilla 11-9 in the third to move into the semis.
• Alonso was pressed by Carrasco, but moved on in a very close 13,(13),8 result.
• Moscoso was pressed all night by Flores, but found an extra gear in the tiebreaker to win 14,(10),6.

In the Semis, the two top players in the draw (Montoya and Moscoso) cruised into the finals with little trouble; Montoya frustrated his long-time rival Parrilla 15-8, 15-2 and Moscoso blasted Alonso 15-4, 15-0 to set up the dream final for the neutrals; two athletic, hard-hitting power players.

In the Finals, we had two players who seem like they are a lot closer than they historically have been: Moscoso led the head to head for their careers 9-5, but had won the last 5 meetings to put some separation between them from a period a few years ago where Montoya really seemed to have his number. Rodrigo did his best here to reverse the trend, taking game one 15-13, but Moscoso took over from there, winning games two and three by 15-7, 11-5 margins that weren’t ever really in doubt.
