Since 20 February, Tolito Aguirre and Gonza Alfonso compete in competitions all over the world. Passing through the Portugal,Spain, Then the Mexico before landing at USA, the two players, nicknamed “The Magicians”, amaze the fans. In 26 days, they argued 20 games, sometimes going so far as to play two meetings in one day, as was the case yesterday in Miami.

Less of 48 hours after having disputed the Cancun P2 final, lost in the face of Franco Stupaczuk and Juan LeBron, the duo only took a few hours of rest before flying to the Florida. As soon as they disembarked, they dropped off their suitcases at the hotel before heading to the Miami Beach Convention Center, where they argued two qualifying rounds au Motorola Razr Miami Premier Padel P1. A situation that recalls their journey between the final of the P2 of Gijón played on Sunday March 2, and their entry into the lists at FIP Platinum of Puebla le Tuesday 4 March, on the other side of the world.

A hellish chain of events, just like their nickname. Since the beginning of their journey, they have won the FIP Gold of Paredes, reached the final of the P2 of Gijón face Curro Cabeza and David Garcia, picked up a new title at the FIP Platinum of Puebla, before losing in the final to Cancun. But beyond the results, it is their spectacular style that continues to seduce fans of paddle.

But this adventure of the pair Tolito / Alfonso must not obscure the sling, controversies and the fact that many players feel that they have “abused the situation” taking advantage of the removal from the world top 100. Especially since the points acquired at Gijón and, above all, those obtained at Cancún could be withdrawn if some of the players strikers won his case.
