With two big tournaments planned for 2020: one for the FIP, the other for the APT Padel Tour, Las Vegas, the most populated city in Nevada, seems to be betting on padel.

The United States, which have over 3 million pickleball players, represent a  Huge growth potential for padel . FIP and APT Padel Tour understood this well. Las Vegas, the gambling capital of the world, is clearly one of the most attractive cities for hosting tournaments.

Thus, the International Federation of Padel organize a  FIP Rise  at the Real Racket Academy in Las Vegas from November 15 to 17. There are also rumors that the World Veterans Padel Championship, which is supposed to take place at the same time, could also take place in the “city of sin”. To be continued.

The  APT Padel Tour  is not to be outdone, with, in 2020, as Fabrice Pastor told us, three dates scheduled in the United States, including one to  Las Vegas , from 06/07 to 12/07. The San Diego tournament which was to take place from 27/03 to 03/04 could not be held because of the Covid-19.

Let's hope that the one in Las Vegas and the one in Houston, supposed to take place from 12/10 to 18/10, can take place. The same goes for the veterans world championships. With the United States being badly affected by the virus, nothing is less certain... In any case, when things return to normal, it could be that the American-style show will contribute greatly to the development of padel!
