Pablo Lijo Fed up. The Spanish player published on his social networks a press release which leaves no one indifferent, and which calls into question the World Padel Tour and its new offer.

The United Players

We know the context: the WPT, through Alex Corretja, is trying to reconnect with the players. The former tennis player invited the players to the presentation of the "new World Padel Tour”, a meeting that was to be held in Menorca tomorrow.

However, the players, through a press release from the PPA, have decided to announce that they would not be attending this meeting. Pablo Lijo decides to clarify the situation with a press release addressed directly to Alex Corretja.

"The players don't want to go to the presentation, Alex, because for the first time in the history of this young sport that you have just joined, we are UNITED."

I lost an idol

The release continues with several salient phrases that undermine the WPT's position.

“Since I have been a player, the WPT has taken advantage of everyone’s disunity to take the padel wherever he saw fit, repeatedly ignoring players, acting like an all-powerful master whom we must serve as loyal slaves.”

“Alex, the app is the actor. If you want to propose a new circuit model for players, we will be happy to hear it, but only if you remove the proceedings nonsense committed against all of us."

“Who does the WPT want to attend this presentation? individual players. Why ? Because then we have no power, that's what they've always done. Alex, I'm sure you don't know who I am, and I envy you because this letter will only be a passing headache for you, but I lost an idol.“, concludes Pablo Lijo.
