After their coronation at FIP Gold Walls , Tolito Aguirre and Gonzalo Alfonso present themselves as the favorites of the Gijon P2 , a tournament that promises to be very special following the boycott of the world's best pairs. And for good reason: No top 100 players are in the table , the highest ranked being Simone Cremona (105th in the world) . Suffice to say that the field is clear for the Argentinians, who have already proven their status as favourites by dominating the final in Paredes. Deus brothers , classified 60th and 70th in the world .
A huge challenge for Tolito and Alfonso
Their victory in Portugal allowed them to add a nice line to their list of achievements, but above all to pocket 300 FIP points , bringing their total to 790 points . With this capital, they are already at the gates of the final table of major tournaments de Premier Padel.
But the real opportunity is in Gijón: If they win this P2, they would add 1200 extra points , thus reaching 1990 points in the ranking. This figure is crucial, because when Riyadh P1 , the last qualified for the final table (round of 16) were 1585 points . A victory here would therefore open up the doors of the Majors and P1 , where the biggest points are played and where they can really compete with the best.
From the king of A1 Padel to the conquest of Premier Padel

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
