world padel tour logoPadel Magazine - After several months of rumors, hypotheses, doubts and speculations, the World Padel Tour (WPT) finally announces its 2014 WPT tournament schedule!

Whereas the WPT could have disappeared to give way to a new structure which could have been called “Estrella Padel Tour ”(EPT), it is finally the WPT which continues its march forward with Estrella as main sponsor.

We will notice that all tournaments start with Estrella. Although it is not necessarily a novelty, Estrella has known how to make itself heard to obtain maximum coverage of padel.

Let's not talk about the past anymore, and let's talk about the future with the show that's about to begin.

The first stage will take place at the beginning of May and will continue until the Masters in December. 15 tournaments and a Master. By observing a little more closely, we notice that there are 4 stages which will not be played in Spain. One would have thought that a stage could have been done in Brazil, since there are two stages in particular taking place in Argentina ...

But it's Dubai that came out of the WPT hat. This stage will be scheduled in December, just before the Masters.

Note that a WPT stage in Lisbon (Portugal) will take place between September 25 and October 5.
