Le  Buenos Aires P1  may have marked a real turning point in the 2026 season of Premier PadelBecause today, a trend seems to be clearly confirmed: the world's number 2 players have gained the upper hand over the leaders of the rankings, both in the men's and women's categories.

In Buenos Aires,  Paula Josemaría / Bea González  et  Alejandro Galán / Fede Chingotto  have struck very hard again. And beyond the titles won, it is above all the statistics and current dynamics that are impressive.

 Josemaría and González: total domination among the ladies 

The women's final of the Buenos Aires P1 tournament has once again confirmed a reality that has become impossible to ignore:  Paula Josemaría and Bea González are currently the strongest pair on the women's circuit. .

Their victory against  Gemma Triay / Delfi Brea  ( 6 / 3 7 / 5 ) is not just another success:

  • it's a  fifth consecutive victory  facing the world's number 1
  • un  fifth consecutive title 
  • and especially  20th consecutive victory 

A totally crazy series.

Even more striking: Triay and Brea, however, remain on  12 consecutive finals … but they lost some  10 .

 A psychological dominance that has become enormous 

In Buenos Aires, Josemaría and González once again gained the upper hand in key moments.

From the start of the final, they broke immediately to lead 2-0 before maintaining their lead until the end of the first set.

In the diagonal, Paula Josemaría clearly dominated a physically diminished Delfi Brea after her marathon semi-final of more than three hours.

And when Triay and Brea had the opportunity to stay alive in the second set at 5/6, they again cracked at the wrong time.

As if to symbolize it, it was Delfi Brea who committed the last foul of the match in front of his Argentinian fans.

5th consecutive victory: Josemaría and González continue their dominance over Triay/Brea and win the Buenos Aires P1

 The numbers are becoming impressive. 

With this new title, Josemaría further strengthens her status as the most decorated player in the history of Premier Padel with now:

  •  22 tracks Premier Padel 

Bea González has reached:

  •  27 career titles 
  • and actually surpasses Delfi Brea in this ranking

In Race 2026, their lead continues to grow after the:

  • titles to  Miami 
  •  NewGiza 
  •  Brussels 
  •  Assumption 
  • and now  Buenos Aires 

They will arrive at the Italy Major as the true bosses of the women's circuit.

 Galán and Chingotto shake the reign of Tapia and Coello 

The observation is just as strong among men.

The demonstration performed by  Galan / Chingotto  in the final against  Tapia / Coello  It made a huge impression on observers.

Victory :  6-2, 6-1 in just 1 hour and 17 minutes of play .

And above all, an impression of almost total domination against a world number 1 pair who until then seemed almost untouchable.

 Completely one-sided statistics 

The figures from this final are extremely telling.

Overall, the match:

  •  58% of points won  for Galán / Chingotto
  •  65% success rate behind their first shot 
  •  59% of points won on the opponent's first serve return 
  •  52% of the points earned on the return in total 
Galán/Chingotto give Tapia/Coello a lesson in the Buenos Aires P1 final

 The balance of power is completely reversed 

This victory is not a mere accident.

Galán and Chingotto have now come from:

  • win  5 titles this season 
  • win  3 finals in a row  against them
  • and take a lead of over 1000 points in the Race over Tapia / Coello

Even more impressive: in Buenos Aires, they didn't lose  no sets all week .

For several weeks now, the visual feeling has become very clear: Galán and Chingotto now seem more tactically solid, more complementary and above all much more mentally consistent.

 The throne no longer belongs to number 1 

The most striking thing about this period is no longer even the fact that number 2 players are winning titles.

The main issue is that they are now able to make vulnerable pairs that had seemed virtually unbeatable for months.

For both men and women, the balance of power seems to have completely changed today.

And a few weeks before the  Italy Major One thing now seems certain:

  • The throne of world padel no longer belongs solely to the number 1s.

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 !
