The Spanish  Tamara Icardo , current  10th player in the world is about to open a new chapter in his career by teaming up with the young left-hander  Claudia jensen ,  11th in the world A new pair that will be officially launched in  2026 , since the  Riyadh Season P1 in Saudi Arabia.

For Claudia Jensen, this association comes after a  2025 season particularly complicated marked by a lack of results and consistency. The Argentinian player hopes to take advantage of the  good end-of-season momentum  Tamara Icardo, who was very convincing in the last tournaments played last year, is looking to get back on track at the highest level.

From the Spanish player's perspective, this choice represents a  a measured but real bet Moving from  Martita Ortega  Claudia Jensen's departure is not insignificant, especially since the split with Ortega surprised part of the circuit. This decision has been all the more commented on given that Tamara Icardo, originally from Valencia, was...  hampered by several physical setbacks  over a large part of the previous season.

Supervised by  Maxi Grabiel  et  Juani Mieres However, Tamara Icardo remains one of the  best female players in the world on the left When she is spared from injury, she possesses the  technical and tactical weapons  to compete with the very best pairs on the circuit.

The central question will therefore be whether Claudia Jensen will be able to bring to her partner the  stability and serenity  which made the association strong with Martita Ortega, aka "the doc" of world padel for her reading of the game and her consistency.

The first answers will arrive quickly: the duo will make their official debut in  less than a month , in Riyadh, on one of the first major stages of the 2026 season.
