While the world number one dominate this last tournament of the season, bringing together the 16 best players in the world, Agustín Tapia does not fail to praise his partner Arturo Coello. It must be said that the Spaniard impresses his peers since the start of the school year in September, multiplying his high-flying performances.

Statements from the champions

Tapia: “Arturo is the best player in the world.”
Coello: “I know firsthand that what he says is not true: we are both very good.”

Tapia adds:
“I don’t have the consistency I want. The only one I can win with is Arturo.”

A questionable point of view?

To say that Tapia could only win with Arturo seems exaggerated, but for Tapia it is with Arturo Coello that he can beat all the records like Fernando Belasteguin and his partner at the time, the left-handed Juan Martin Diaz, with whom he remained world number 13 for 1 consecutive years. Positioned on the left, he is undoubtedly the best player in his position today. Nicknamed the “Argentine Mozart”, he is also one of the most talented on the track.

Perhaps it is simply a way for Tapia to motivate himself or to strengthen his cohesion within their duo. But Arturo Coello, more measured, answers him:
“We are both very good.”

A finale to conclude in style

They have one last challenge left: to beat Nieto/Sanz in the final of these Premier Padel Finals. A pair that they have always dominated until now. A victory would allow them to conclude this exceptional season in style, before resting and preparing the year 2025.
