The first WPT title in Brazil will return in the arms of the new numbers 1 world. Juan Lebron and Paquito Navarro were the strongest in the Sao Paulo Open 2019 final. Back on this first Brazilian final.

We had announced an extraordinary match and we were served once again. This final Sao Paulo Open 2019 is to mark in history. First of all because it's the first, then because it's the first time that two pairs 100% Spanish meet in the final of a tournament WPT, and finally because it positions with honors the pair Navarro / Lebron at the top of the world ranking. What's better for a player like Lebron.

But all had not necessarily started well for the winners of this tournament. Uri Botello and Javier Ruiz managed to grab the first run. A first round where each pair won his service until the break made by Javier and Uri at the end of the set. A Juan and Paquito have not yet found their rhythm and it is 6 / 3 for Botello / Ruiz.

The second set everything will change. Paquito and Juan begin to find their game and especially the big strikes that make this pair one of the greatest strengths. The audience's support with the wolf's howls to support Lebron will cause Juan to settle on his cloud until the end of this final. A break in the second set, then two breaks in the third set and it will be the victory, 6 / 3 6 / 2.

In this final it will be necessary to remember Uri Botello and Javier Ruiz who demonstrate a very high level of padel, certainly a roller coaster this season, but which is proving very effective. It remains to win a title now, Sao Paulo having narrowly escaped them. In short, nothing to say except bravo Lebron / Navarro.
