A somewhat unprecedented final in Düsseldorf between the impeccable Stupaczuk and Di Nenno and the ghosts Lebron and Galan. In their second confrontation of the season, it was again the bosses of last season who won without a mistake, 6-2, 6-2 in just 1 hour 13 minutes. This is the second title this year, after their victory in Finland at the beginning of September.

These two teams are experiencing two very different seasons. On the one hand, the Superpibes with five titles and 24 consecutive victories on the World Padel Tour. And on the other side, former world number ones in a difficult period, with only three finals this season on this circuit and a separation rumor.

The Galantico in action

Great start for Juan Lebron and Alejandro Galan. The player on the left, very strong on this day of the final, offers a very aggressive game from the start and can count on his high-performance backhand volley. Stunned, the impressive Superpibes do not succeed and suffer a 4-0 in twenty minutes of play.

The game is moving radically towards the right diagonal but the Argentine pair cannot find a solution against the Spanish wall. Lebron and Galan return everything and are inspired on every ball touched. The grid quickly becomes the worst enemy of the Superpibes, heads down.

The strategy of playing a little more on Lebron bore fruit at the end of the first round and the Di Nenno/Stupaczuk pair broke for the first time and unlocked their counter. The Argentinians return to 5-2.

The gap is too big for the world number two and the Galan/Lebron pair wins the first round 6/2 in barely forty minutes.

JUAN-LEBRON-ALEJANDRO-GALAN-GERMAN-OPEN-2023

Galan/Lebron in another dimension

No slowdown for Lebron/Galan who continue to dictate their law. On the one hand, Alejandro Galan shows his strength. And on the other, Juan LeBron defends absolutely all the balls. Enough to disgust their opponents, uninspired on this day of the final, especially with Franco Stupaczuk, passive in the exchanges.

In the same pattern as the first round, the first break will be for Lebron/Galan. The score will rise to 3-1 for the former number ones in fifteen minutes of play. It is not for lack of more for Franco and Martin but success does not seem to want to extend its arms to them in this final.

This performance by Lebron and Galan in this final is strongly reminiscent of the matches of last season, the year 2022, where they flew over the circuit of World Padel Tour – but also Premier Padel. Impeccable in their attitude, Alejandro and Juan do not let Franco and Martin breathe.

They were just too strong in Germany, the former world number ones. After eliminating the Coello/Tapia pair in the semi-final, in a tense match, Galan and Lebron sound the revolt and correct Martin and Franco. Final score: 6-2, 6-2.

It was his brother who one day told him to accompany him on a track. padel, since then, Gwenaëlle has never left the court. Except when it comes to going to watch the broadcast of Padel Magazine, World Padel Tour… or Premier Padel…or the French Championships. In short, she is a fan of this sport.
