After the enormous battles in the women's draw, the audience of  Park Roca  was treated to another top-level evening with the men's semi-finals of the  Buenos Aires P1 .

And now, the dream lineup will indeed take place:  Arturo Coello / Agustín Tapia  will find  Ale Galán / Fede Chingotto  in the final for another clash at the top of the world padel scene.

 Tapia and Coello resist the return of Stupa and Yanguas 

In the first semi-final, the world number 1s faced off  Franco Stupaczuk / Mike Yanguas  with a clear objective: to reach a 22nd consecutive final.

And the Golden Boys' start to the match is impressive.

With very solid serves, aggressive volleys, and ultra-precise decision-making, Coello and Tapia immediately took control of the match. Arturo dominated with his power while Agustín perfectly managed the pace of the game.

The break comes quickly and the number 1s cruise to take the first set:  6/3 .

 A much more tense second set 

But a semi-final is never won easily.

In the second round,  Yanguas and Stupaczuk  They are clearly increasing in intensity. More aggressive, more enterprising, they are finally pushing the league leaders to their limits.

The exchanges become extremely fast and every game turns into a fight.

Both teams remained solid on their serves, and no breaks of serve proved decisive. The set was clearly heading towards a highly charged tie-break.

And as is often the case in important moments, Tapia and Coello stepped up.

Gustavo Pratto's players completely took control of the tie-break, which they won.  7 points to 2 To conclude the meeting:  6 / 3 7 / 6 .

Buenos Aires therefore continues to dream of another title for Agustín Tapia at home.

 Galán and Chingotto crush Lebrón and Augsburger 

The second semi-final was probably the most anticipated of the day.

The duel between  Galan / Chingotto  et  Lebrón / Augsburger  It had everything to offer a huge battle: Galán-Lebrón rivalry, revenge after Brussels, recent statements… all the ingredients were there.

But on the track, there was virtually no suspense.

 A first set that was completely one-sided 

From the very first exchanges, Galán and Chingotto imposed a hellish pace.

Constant pressure on the fly, domination in transitions, monstrous defense from Chingotto and enormous intensity from Galán: Lebrón and Augsburger are totally stifled.

The first set quickly turned into a demonstration:  6-0 in just twenty minutes .

A real shocker.

 Chingalán doesn't let up. 

Lebrón and Augsburger did try to react in the second set with a little more aggression, but control of the match remained totally with the world number 2s.

Galán and Chingotto break in the fourth game to create a gap and will not allow any further openings.

The duo concluded authoritatively:  6 / 0 6 / 3 .

An impressive performance that probably confirms their best level of the season.

 Another final between giants 

With this victory,  Chingalan  takes his revenge on Lebrón and Augsburger after the defeat suffered in Brussels and offers himself another final against the world number 1s.

The final of  Buenos Aires P1  will therefore be opposed once again:

  •  Tapia / Coello 
  •  Galan / Chingotto 

The poster that currently dominates world padel and continues to fuel the battle for the throne of the circuit.

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 !
