Valence Premier Padel P1, the tenth tournament of the season, did not cause any major upheavals in the FIP rankings. While the hierarchies remain largely the same for both men and women, a few changes are worth noting, particularly the further progress of the young Spaniard Martina Calvo.
Tapia and Coello maintain a large lead
Winners in Valencia after a stunning final against Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto (6/7 6/1 7/6), Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia consolidate their status as world number 1.
The Spanish-Argentine duo now have a total of 21 694 points maintaining a comfortable lead over their pursuers.
The world's top 10 remains virtually unchanged:
- Agustín Tapia – 21,126 points
- Arturo Coello – 21,126 points
- Alejandro Galán – 17,291 points

A stable hierarchy among the ladies
In the women's category, Gemma Triay and Delfi Brea remain firmly in first place with 17 794 points each.

- Tamara Icardo – 6,261 points
- Marta Ortega – 5,991 points
In the Race, Triay and Brea now have a lead of 1 020 points on their closest pursuers.
Martina Calvo continues her rise
The beautiful story of this Valencian week is signed Martina Calvo A semi-finalist in the tournament alongside Marta Ortega after notably eliminating Paula Josemaría and Bea González, the young Spaniard continues her meteoric rise.
Thanks to this journey, Martina Calvo gains one place and climbs to 12th in the world rankings further confirming its immense potential.
At just 17 years old, the Spaniard is now establishing herself as one of the most promising players on the circuit and is gradually approaching the world's Top 10.
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 !
