The Santiago P1 will conclude this Sunday with two highly anticipated… and familiar finals. For both the women's and men's competitions, the matches will be exactly the same as last week in Miami: Ariana Sánchez and Paula Josemaría (seeded 1) will face Gemma Triay and Delfina Brea (TS2), while Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto (TS2) will be opposed to Juan Lebrón and Franco Stupaczuk (TS3).

Two dream replays to conclude the Latin American tour.

A rivalry that is taking hold among women

It's already here third final between Sánchez / Josemaría and Triay / Brea this season. The world's number one pair won in Riyadh, before being defeated by Gemma and Delfi in Gijón and then in Miami. The latter are riding an exceptional momentum: three consecutive titles (Gijón, Cancún, Miami), a series of 15 consecutive victories, they are in exceptional form.

In Santiago, Triay and Brea did not lose a single set in the tournament and crushed the Ustero/Alonso pairing in the semifinals (6/1 6/2). Their complementarity is complete: Triay dominates on the left with his power, Brea shines on the volley.

On their side, Ariana and Paula had to fight hard to secure their place in the final after a superb fight against Bea González and Claudia Fernández (2/6 6/3 6/3). But as is often the case, their mental strength spoke volumes in key moments. Inseparable since 2021, the Spanish women have accumulated titles (12 trophies in 18 finals played together).

In Gijón in February, Triay and Brea had struck a major blow by overturning Sánchez / Josemaría in the final (0/6 6/1 6/4) to secure their first trophy together. It was a repeat performance in Miami: once again, the world No. 2s overcame the loss of the first set to dominate the No. 1s in three sets (2/6 6/1 6/4). These summit duels are currently turning to the advantage of Triay and Brea, who seem to have the recipe to shake the reigning champions. Ariana and Paula, so consistent as usual, have only suffered two defeats in 2025, in these two finals and intend to take their revenge in Chile.

A Triay/Brea win would bring them a little closer to world number one... The pressure is on.

Men's: Galán and Chingotto want to do it again

A week after their title in Miami, Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto are back in the final, with the goal of doing the double. In the semi-final, they got the better of Yanguas / Nieto by winning 7/6 6/2, in an increasingly controlled match.

With renewed consistency, the Spanish-Argentine pair appear to have rediscovered their best form. This will already be their second consecutive Ligue 1 final. Galán has become very dominant again, while Chingotto shines in all areas.

But opposite, Stupaczuk and Lebrón don't intend to make things easy for them. Finalists in Riyadh, winners in Cancun, then finalists again in Miami, they continue their series with a third consecutive finalTheir semi-final against Tello and Libaak was a close one (3/6 6/3 6/1), but their experience made the difference in the important moments.

The duel between Galán and Lebrón will be closely watched, as their relationship remains strained since their separation. In Miami, their icy handshake made a lasting impression.

It's icy between Lebrón and Galán

Alejandro Galán and Juan Lebrón, linked by a long shared past, are now engaged in a long-distance struggle to establish a new dynasty. mutual knowledge brings an extra tactical dimension to every rally. Federico Chingotto and Franco Stupaczuk have known each other since childhood in Argentina and share an exemplary fighting spirit on the court. All these ingredients promise an explosive and undecided final in Santiago.

The objectives

  • Triay / Brea can win a fourth consecutive title and strike a huge blow in the race for the world throne.
  • Sanchez / Josemaria must win to avoid seeing their lead in the standings disappear.
  • Galan / Chingotto can double their tally in 2025 and confirm their return to the top.
  • Stupaczuk / Lebrón aim for a second title together to establish itself as the real alternative to the first two pairs.

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 !
