This Friday, August 18 begins in Knokke, Belgium, the Belgius Padel Summer Gala, an exhibition tournament that brings together stars from padel World.

The competition, organized by Vincent Laureyssens and part of the WPT calendar will feature the number 1 Paula Josemaria, the French Alix Collombon or the showman Miguel Lamperti and the nugget Miguel Yanguas.

But the most astonishing thing is not the cast that the Belgian organization managed to mobilize, but the fact that during the weekend, 50 places for the Paris Premier Padel Major, which will take place at Roland-Garros in September, will be up for grabs.

Tickets for a tournament Premier Padel on a stamped exhibition World Padel Tour, this is clearly a first, and it is a source of great pride for Vincent Laureyssens, as he has reported to our colleagues from the newspaper Le Soir :

“This collaboration is historic and exceptional for two major organizers of tournaments padel international, from different circuits and bordering neighbours. Promoting other high quality tournaments and different circuits is essential since in the future there will be only one professional circuit. This proves that the promoters/organizers want to develop together the most beautiful show of padel with the best players of padel of the world, for the greatest pleasure of the public, the sponsors, the media, the public authorities... and above all without tension, political problem or tensions..."

The organizer of this Belfius Padel Summer Gala is convinced of this, in the future there will be only one professional circuit, and this rapprochement, which seems trivial at first sight, may mark a real turning point in the future of the padel worldwide!
