Juan LeBron at the origin of a new controversy that is causing a lot of talk in Acapulco. At the heart of this turmoil, the Andalusian distinguished himself in a way that sparked lively debate within the padel community.

A contested celebration

When for his Premier Padel from Acapulco, in the quarterfinals, Juan Lebron and Ale Galan faced Mike Yanguas and Javier Garrido. Lebron and Galan's victory could have been a moment of celebration. However, Lebron's post-game behavior quickly overshadowed the athletic performance.

Indeed, Lebron, after a match controlled from start to finish, chose to celebrate this victory by taking off his jersey and brandishing it in front of his opponents, a gesture perceived as provocative by the public present. This action immediately caused a negative reaction from spectators.

Lebron, misunderstood, clumsy?

This episode recalls previous behaviors of Lebron, notably during the incident marked by heated exchanges during the Major of Qatar. These actions had already raised questions about the behavior of certain actors of the padel.

A damaged image

Juan LeBron is recognized for his talent. That's not the question. But he risks ultimately seeing his image tarnished by behavior deemed inappropriate on the ground.

Galan's smile when he sees his partner holding up his t-shirt says a lot: with Chingotto, these misadventures will be over.

New excuses?

We expect new apologies from Lebron. But will it be enough to make us forget this umpteenth episode?

We also remember the words to Miami of Juan LeBron who criticized the World Padel Tour his lack of professionalism regarding certain behaviors in relation to certain players or certain situations.
