Le  Riyadh Season Premier Padel P1 , which takes place from February 10 to 15, 2025 at the  Padel Rush Arena  Riyadh, enters a decisive phase with the  round of XNUMX  of the women's table. Several renowned duos are entering the competition, while some pairs are looking to create a surprise.

 A baptism of fire for Brea/Triay 

New association highly anticipated,  Delfina Brea and Gemma Triay  (seeded no. 2) begin their journey against  Alejandra Alonso and Andrea Ustero . The latter, a duo since May 2023, form one of the strongest pairs on the circuit. Ustero, 17, already holds the record for the youngest finalist of a  Premier Padel Major  (Paris 2023 with Brea). Facing them, Brea and Triay combine  seven titles  each on the circuit Premier Padel. To note that  Brea was a finalist in Riyadh in 2024 , while Triay had failed in the quarter-finals.

 First outing for González/Fernández 

 Bea González and Claudia Fernández  team up for the first time in competition. They face  Marta Talaván and Ksenia Sharifova , who had to fight more than  2h30 in three sets  in the previous round against  Nuria Rodriguez and Carolina Orsi . González, finalist in Riyadh in 2024 with Brea, hopes to shine with Fernández, former partner of Triay. This match represents  a major test  for their new association.

 Sánchez/Josemaría in search of a new coronation 

The world's No. 1s,  Ariana Sánchez and Paula Josemaría , enter the fray with the ambition of  defend their title . Impressive in the Middle East in 2024 with victories at  Qatar and Kuwait , they had only conceded  four defeats in P1  last year. Their goal? To continue their domination from this first tournament of the year.

 Guinart/Iglesias facing rising youth 

 Marina Guinart and Victoria Iglesias , surprise droppers of Aranzazu Osoro and Jessica Castelló , must now confirm against the  young hopefuls Noa Cánovas and Jimena Velasco . Guinart knows Riyadh well, where she reached the quarter-finals in 2024 with Carolina Navarro. For their part, Cánovas and Velasco dream of a  first quarter-final  on the circuit Premier Padel.

 Ortega/Araújo as solid favorites 

The pair  Marta Ortega and Sofia Araujo  (n°4) continues its journey against  Marina Lobo and Sofia Saiz , two players who are still struggling to get through this stage of the competition.  Ortega and Araújo have never been eliminated before the quarterfinals  since the formation of their duo in  Genoa , and their consistency outdoors makes them formidable opponents.

 Qualifications in force 

For  first time since Milan 2023 , two pairs from the qualifications rise to  Round of 1 of a women's PXNUMX .  Raquel Eugenio and Laia Rodriguez  will try to continue their journey against the experienced  Patricia Llaguno and Lucia Sainz , While  Virginia Riera and Marta Marrero  will cross swords with  Carmen Goenaga and Bea Caldera , in a match that promises to be very competitive.

The rest of the tournament promises to be  explosive clashes  and could reserve some surprises. Who will manage to reach the quarter-finals and get closer to the title? Answer on the courts of Riyadh.
