Juan Lebron Chincoa today becomes the first player in the history of padel born in Spain to finish at the top of the World Padel Tour. Spain can finally breathe.

History laughs at us. Because Juan Lebron succeeds in obtaining the first world place in Sao Paulo in Brazil ... While Latin America does not stop occupying this first world place since 2013! It is true that he could have obtained it in Argentina, which would have been the height of irony.

This Saturday, November 23, the victory of Juan Lebrón and Paquito Navarro on Fernando Belasteguín and Agustín Tapia (6 / 7 7 / 6 6 / 4), in the semifinals of the Open of Sao Paulo, allows the player of Cadiz to reach the first step of the WPT ranking. A semifinal like no other!

This square confirms the birth of a new era of padel worldwide with young Spanish talents such as Lebrón, Galán, Nieto or Garrido, but also Argentines such as Tapia, Stupaczuk or Tello who are now part of the world top.

But this coveted place is not guaranteed. There are still the Mexico Open (26 Nov -1st dec) and the Barcelona Master Final (19 to 22 dec) which will determine which players will reach the top of the world rankings, with Sanyo, Paquito, Maxi, Galán have not yet said their last word.

To go a little further and moderate our remarks. If being the world number one is exceptional, we remind you that the World Padel Tour has only existed since 2013. Finally, for 16 years, Fernando Belasteguin and Juan Martin Diaz reigned supreme on the professional circuit of padel. To finish Juan Martin Diaz plays for Spain, even though he was born in Argentina.

Juan Lebron: Bravo. Now, he will have to fight with his partner Paquito Navarro, number 2 worldwide, to stay there because the competition is fierce.
