Padel Magazine - The last images we had of Juan Martin Dias and Fernando Belasteguin could allow us to be skeptical about the continuation of their careers… At the Barcelona WPT called the Barcelona Open Estrella Damm, the world numbers answered our fears by a wonderful victory against their pursuers in the world ranking, Mieres and Lima.

They won their 11e title in Barcelona on 12 presentations against their main rivals, Juan Mieres and Pablo Lima.

What a victory after being forced to forfeit the Madrid Masters final last December.

The sole of the foot and the knee problems are, hopefully behind us, for an extraordinary spectacle with Bela and “el papa” (The Pope) which is announced this year after much rebound behind the scenes of the World Padel Tour.

Real Club de Polo was packed and had Laurent and JM from the brand new club of padel In Lyon (Padel Central). The stands no longer offered a single seat available. Unfortunately for the world number two, nicknamed "the princes", it will be necessary once again to bow, for the umpteenth time in the final against always the same pair which decidedly, leaves very little crumb.

Note this fighting spirit offered to us by world numbers 2 despite the loss of the first set and a correction (6-1). The princes will have been able, too, to show that it is necessary to continue to count on them this year. They managed to win the 2nd set 6/4. But then Bela and Juan will simply have played too well to be worried for a single moment.

The final result will be 6/1, 4/6, 6/2, 6/3 for “los reyes”.

It's back for a year of madness!
