This is the most anticipated men's match of these semi-finals at Paris Major 2025 : the world number 1s Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia face the pair Juan Lebrón / Franco Stupaczuk , current No. 3 on the circuit. A clash between two teams full of confidence, with a place in the final against the legendary Philippe Chatrier at stake.
Coello and Tapia, kings of Roland-Garros
They arrive launched into an impressive series. 13 consecutive victories at Roland-Garros , double champions in Paris (2023 and 2024), they have not not lost a set on Parisian soil for two years . They are defending their rights this week. 3 000 points acquired between Paris and Rotterdam last year.
Another notable figure: they are competing for their 9th consecutive semi-final in Major , with 8 finals in a row in the major events (6 titles). In the quarter-finals, they eliminated “Los Javis” Barahona / García (7/5 6/1), still on the Chatrier.
Lebrón and Stupa, the rising outsider
Opposite, Lebron and Stupaczuk confirm week after week that they form one of the most dangerous pairs on the circuit. Already authors of 4 finals in 2025 (including a title in Cancun), they chain a third consecutive semi-final after Tarragona and Madrid.
For Lebrón , the stakes are particular: he is chasing a Major final for 3 years , his last one dating back to Paris 2022 alongside Galán. Stupa , he dreams of a first final on the Parisian Central, after having already won a Major title (Doha 2023 with Di Nenno).
An explosive half in perspective
Their journey so far has been express: only 9 games lost in 3 matches , including a quarter-final dominated against Guerrero/Leal (6/1 6/1). The Spaniard and the Argentinian therefore arrive fresh and full of confidence to challenge the kings of the circuit.
With a H2H slightly favorable to Coello / Tapia (2-1) , the balance remains fragile. The Parisian experience and the invincibility of the number 1 on the Chatrier weigh heavily, but Lebrón and Stupa have the weapons to create a surprise.
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 !
