Approaching the P2 of Asuncion , the professional padel circuit is experiencing a new wave of partner changes, both among the men's and women's teams. With several recent projects failing to bear fruit, players have decided to try a new adventure... sometimes surprising.
The new men's pairs
Alex Ruiz / Maxi Sanchez
An unexpected partnership made possible by the rankings. These two experienced players will attempt to relaunch their season together, starting as the tournament's No. 11 pair.
Jairo Bautista / Edu Alonso
Both in search of stability, they join forces for this P2, with the firm intention of permanently integrating the Top 8 of the circuit.
Javi Leal / Fran Guerrero
The two Spanish players, who have known each other since their youth years, have formed an ambitious and close-knit duo; they will be the number 12 pair in the tournament.
Alex Chozas / Sanyo Gutiérrez
It's official: Sanyo and Chozas are launching together in Asunción. A combination of experience and youth, with great potential... They're starting as the No. 13 seeds.
Iñigo Jofre / Alex Arroyo
After splitting with Edu Alonso, Arroyo will try to bounce back with the young Jofre. But their No. 14 seed shows how the change is not without consequences for Arroyo.
Jose Diestro / Juanlu Esbrí
Diestro is banking on Esbrí's continued talent to form a combative duo capable of knocking off top seeds.
Other new associations include:
- Lucas Campagnolo / Nachi Sager
- Gonzalo Rubio / Javi Ruiz
- Teo Zapata / José Jimenez
- Juan Cruz Belluati / Pablo Lijó
- Javier Valdés / Guille Collado
The new women's pairs
Sofi Araújo / Andrea Ustero
One of the biggest announcements of this window of change. Araújo has chosen to place his trust in the promising 17-year-old Andrea Ustero, who has thus moved into the Top 4 of the women's pairs by partnering the Portuguese.
Marta Ortega / Alejandra Alonso
Ustero's former teammate reunites with Marta Ortega, forming a solid new pairing that will start as the No. 5 seed. Here again, Ortega's ambition is clear: to quickly return to the top four seeds.
Jessica Castelló / Lorena Rufo
After his separation from Aranza Osoro, Castelló chose Rufo's consistency to remain competitive.
Aranza Osoro / Martina Calvo
The biggest surprise: Osoro is betting on youth with Martina Calvo, born in 2008! A union of power and a promising future.
Marta Marrero / Lucia Martínez Gómez
Finally, Marta Marrero, who had just separated from Virginia Riera, has decided to return to competition in Paraguay alongside Lucia Martínez. A 100% Spanish pairing that will attempt to return to the quarterfinals.
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 !
