Robin Haziza : Hello Robin Haziza, French number 1 of Padel, I live here in Barcelona to live the adventure World Padel tour !

World Padel Tour : The adventure of Robin Haziza began, his dream and goal: to be part of the players who can play the professional circuit all year on the WPT. For any adventure, there are constraints and sacrifices but for the French no doubt it is now or never!

Rob : The idea is to play all World Padel tour and Challengers tournaments in Spain but also all those which will take place abroad (Miami, Dubai, Lisbon and France).

These are indeed sacrifices, professionally, personally, live away from his family it is not always obvious but I 33 years, I can still be 2 or 3 years of high level ... It is now or never !

WPT : The Frenchman tells us how the Padel is developing in France but also internationally, the evolution in France and the emergence of this sport under the label World Padel Tour.

Rob: In France the Padel is developing very quickly, for 2/3 years a lot of land has been built, 50 sites in France 5 years ago, today we are approaching 500 sites. People are taking a liking to this very fun sport, and many players today aspire to play the WPT.

The WPT is a dream for the best French players and players, the brand WPT is international and very good players come from European countries (France, Italy, Portugal, Sweden).

I am convinced that by 2 / 3 years, WPT stages will take place all over Europe.

WPT : It is true that more and more fans are watching the matches via the streaming of the World Padel Tour.

Rob: Many people watch the games on the Web, people talk a lot between them, the game of the day before or extraordinary points seen on the WEB, Facebook, instagram etc ... also allow to view many incredible videos, which contribute the development of the WPT brand.

WPT : Robin has the chance to practice some time with Fernando Belasteguin, the number 1 world, what are the tips that gave him "Bela"

Rob : First Bela congratulated me on my project, my desire to perform and live here in Spain to devote myself to my passion. he told me if you want to do padel you have to live it here in Spain.

WPT : Robin has everything of a “crack” on and off the track and got caught up in the dictionary game Padel translate in French.

Dictionary in French ....

Me: Fallar a golpe ... .euh this word does not exist in French !!!!

Me: Juan (Juan Alday coach of Robin Haziza) "if you need coaching for the camera .... let me know ..."
