Top start for the Master CMB in Monaco of A1 Padel. As in previous years, the hostilities take place at the foot of the Casino Monte-Carlo!

A very high table!

An event in an idyllic setting but above all with the best players from the Fabrice Pastor circuit. A1's number 1s Padel, Maximilano Arce and Franco Dal Bianco, are obviously favourites. Ever since the first Masters in Cape Town, the Arce/Dal Bianco pair has been irresistible and upset everything in its path. After Seville, Beausoleil, Santa Maria and Buenos Aires, the Argentinians intend to achieve the pass of 5 in the Principality.

But the task promises to be complex for the kings of A1 Padel with a very raised part of the painting. In case of victory in the 1/16th final they could find the finalists of the Open de France, Miguel Semmler and Pablo Lijo. The Spaniards are back to spoil the party. And they are not alone. Indeed, another iconic WPT duo is coming to the Principality: the pair Pincho Fernandez / José Diestro. This season the Spaniards had already gone to the Masters of Cape Town in South Africa, where they had stopped in the 1/4 finals.

Last April, Alex Chozas distinguished himself at the Granada Open 1000 on the WPT and well this time it's a young player who has distinguished himself lately on the World Padel Tour who will team up with the Argentinian. In effect, the 19-year-old reunites with Léo Augsburger, a former A1 player Padel. The two players know each other well. Nicknamed the "Bombardiers", they intend to shine on the Monegasque track. It will necessarily be necessary to keep an eye on this duo.

A fan of oval football, round ball but also racket sports, he was stung by the padel during his adolescence in Galicia. As comfortable in front of the camera as behind a microphone, Vince will be able to bring his vision and expertise as a fan of the little yellow ball.
