According to Paquito Navarro and Martin Di Nenno: “the current padel will have nothing comparable in 10 years”. Indeed, the world numbers 3 and 4 offer us an in-depth analysis of padel and its evolution.

Le Padel in full growth

En Spain, the current cradle of world padel, it is one of the most practiced racket sports and its growth in the world is exponential.

Professional players are gaining more and more recognition thanks to the growing exposure of the WPT. Despite this strong growth, this is only the beginning according to Paquito Navarro: “Today, you can make a living from padel. The top 32 pairs make a living from it, but it will be nothing compared to what we will know in 10 years.”

As far as recognition goes, it's not yet football or tennis, but “there is always someone asking you for a picture,” Paquito explains.

The two men have also managed to forge a special relationship with the public: Di Nenno tells us that “it's exciting what we're going through this year with Paquito. We have this special feeling with the public ”.

What to do to improve at padel

There are more and more of us playing padel, but only a handful manage to reach the top. Paquito and Martin give us some tips to improve.

You have to choose your partner well. “The key is not to play with your heart partner,” according to Paquito. You have to find a companion based on your qualities and faults, not based on your emotions.

In addition, it is necessary to know how to concentrate on the observation. We must identify the strengths and weaknesses of each. According to Martin Di Nenno, “everyone has their qualities and their faults, the key is decision-making, choosing the right move at the right time”. We have to know the moves that we master the best and use them wisely. Do not attempt blows that we do not control.
