This is one of the peculiarities of World Padel Tour : it is not possible to leave the track to put a par 3 in preprevias. The men must wait for the final of the previas.

It is a specificity of the padel professional: the conditions are not exactly the same for the preprevias matches as for those of the main draw. We will tell you more specifically about a rule that changes between qualifications and the table: leaving the track.

You have to understand that up to the main board, the qualifying matches of the Open and Master tournaments of World Padel Tour take place in clubs. Indeed, the organization of such a quantity of games to play requires at least five fields, and in general, the more fields there are, the easier it is to schedule schedules for the matches.

But in clubs, the pitches are often very close to each other, sometimes even stuck to a wall, which makes it very difficult to get off the track, sometimes even outright impossible. In order to guarantee fair conditions, the WPT prohibits any exit until the finals of previas.

Thus, players who would have as strong point the exit of track, cannot use this weapon during the first turns. Conversely, players very comfortable in the field of par 3 are clearly favored during qualifying, since they “just have to get the ball out” and don't have to worry about a possible counter.

Another parameter that can differ during the preprevias and first previas matches is the carpet. Indeed, in many Spanish clubs, there are a majority of old generation carpets, shortbread, which does not react the same as those used on the main board.

Finally, the height of the roof is also a variable parameter since the clubs do not do not have the same ceiling height as multipurpose rooms in which the main draw matches take place. All of this can explain the differences in the results of some pairs from one tournament to another and shows how versatile it takes to be successful in the field. World Padel Tour. Generally, those who succeed in breaking through are able to adapt to any situation !
