Sanyo had already sounded the alarm several times regarding the frantic pace in 2022. The 35th player in the world, Victor Ruiz, 19th in the FIP ranking, is also tired by all these tournaments.

Indeed, this season in the WPT competitions, those of Premier Padel. The players therefore participated in a record number of tournaments. A particularly grueling situation, as described by the Spaniard on Instagram:

Talking about a professional athlete is usually talking about their experiences, successes, travels and glory, but sometimes we forget everything behind it.

Last week we closed a season full of compromises, endless dates, endless travels, hours of flights, airports and calls to our families from all over the world.

This year has been special, but all players, institutions, and coaches must learn from what has happened to avoid situations like the ones we have experienced this season.

The pressure, the difficulty of managing success and defeat. It's time to catch our breath, find some oxygen and think about the direction we want to take our profession.
