An exceptional event

These are not less than 15,000 people who made an appointment to attend this competition. An incredible figure!

It must be said that Belgium is one of those countries where the padel is experiencing an unprecedented boom and once again this was noticed by the success of this WPT Exhibition.

Especially since the big blow of the organizers this year was to offer the general public the chance to hit the ball with their favorite stars . Indeed an offer has been proposed including for a sum ranging from 120 to 150 euros the opportunity to play 20 minutes with the top players of the circuit.

Regarding the competition, the winners of this men's tournament were Paquito Navarro and Martin Di Nenno, while for the Ladies, they are Marta Marrero and Marta Ortega that have imposed themselves.

The beginning of cryptocurrency in padel ?

The other novelty this weekend was the award for the big winners.

The prize money distributed 12 euros in crypto currency via Bit000You for the finalists and the champions of the tournament.

Indeed, the platform seeks to gain more market share and it is with the padel that she decided to lead this new adventure.
