At the end of a game of padel, we all end up wondering why we lost the match…Today we bring you real answers.

Technical flaws? Window management? No way ! Padel Magic, on Instagram, finally gives clear data on the question… It’s about time!

As you can see, half the time, it's obviously our teammate's fault if we lose. Obviously, he has a tennis game and puts all his smashes in the bottom of the net. So obviously, we are the first to be impacted by these repeated errors.

Racket, obviously, has a role to play (29%). Besides, when we miss a point, we all tend to lower our heads to give him a reproachful look. It’s clearly his fault if we put a ball off center or if the volley ends up in the net…

We don't talk enough false bounces, which prevent us from playing the shot as we would like. The ball that stops or deviates from its trajectory because of the carpet... or the pile of sand on the service line. Honestly, it's annoying.

The sun. Obviously, it always ends up on the trajectory when you want to smash. In the end, we lose our eyes on the ball and we miss our shot. Frankly, it's still better to play inside the shot, right?

Well, sometimes, but really rarely, It's our fault if we lose the point. But very rarely. Or almost never...

Honorable mention for the : "we lose because I was put in the fridge".

Well, you will have understood, none of this is to be taken seriously. We are not professionals and it is normal to make mistakes. It's by making mistakes that we learn the most. However, if you want some tips To make fewer mistakes, don’t hesitate to take a look at the series: “At the heart of padel", Or Andoni Bardasco gives his advice from a former professional player…
