Sacred to  Brussels P2 ,  Juan Lebrón  et  Leo Augsburg  have marked a turning point in their season. Beyond the title, their appearance at the press conference confirms one thing: this duo has taken a step forward.

 Lebrón: “Very happy, very happy, what more can I say?” 

Still carried away by emotion,  Lebrón  did not hide his joy:

“Very happy, very happy, what more can I say?”

A special title for the Spaniard, which he intends to savor:

“Today, tomorrow, and Tuesday if necessary”

 A key moment on the bench 

One of the highlights of the final was their exchange just before a decisive point.
Lebrón, true to form, recounts with humor:

“I think I kissed her… but you don’t talk about that.”

Then he specifies:

“We were playing very well. I told the team in the first set: we're not playing badly, guys. If we continue like this, we'll have our opportunities.”

A moment that allowed them to relax:

“It allowed us to relax again.”

 Augsburger touched: “A lot of things go through your head” 

Deeply moved,  Leo Augsburg  he spoke about his tears after the match:

“A lot of things go through your head. I’m happy with our progress, with doing things right. But being away from family is also a burden.”

A title that has a special value:

“I thought Madrid would remain something isolated. But after this year, with the training sessions with Agustín, with Juanma… a large part of the credit goes to them.”

He emphasizes the importance of his social circle:

“I am surrounded by people with a lot of experience. Juan is a huge example by my side.”

And it clearly displays its ambitions:

“I want to continue with this team, I want to continue winning titles. I know my family will be proud of this victory.”

 The turning point after Egypt 

The defeat in Egypt marked a turning point:

“It was a very tough defeat. You learn that you can't underestimate anyone. Any pair can beat you.”

With significant mental effort:

“José played a key role. He helped us recharge our batteries to 100%.”

 Lebrón is back to his best. 

For Lebrón, this title confirms an evolution:

“Since we started playing together, I knew I could get back to that level. Thanks to him, to Agustín, to Juanma…”

A more complete game:

“Beyond being aggressive, today I have a more consistent game. He gave me a lot of confidence. I can play more freely.”

But this requirement remains:

“I always think I can do more. Today I played a great match, but I always want to improve.”

 A clear mentality 

Augsburger sums up the duo's state of mind:

“I think we never believed we could lose. That’s our mentality. We don’t underestimate anyone, but we never give up.”

And concludes:

“We are players who give our all on every point. That's what defines us.”

 A title that changes perception 

With this success,  Lebrón / Augsburger  they don't just win a trophy.
They win by  credibility ,  confidence  and above all, in terms of legitimacy compared to the best pairs on the circuit.

Brussels could well be the starting point for a much more ambitious project.

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 !
