Paris champions strike again as Sánchez-Ustero and Coello-Tapia rule Rotterdam

Arturo Coello and Agustin Tapia defeated Franco Stupaczuk and Jon Sanz 6-3, 6-2 in 69 minutes to win Rotterdam. The world No.1 pair earned another 600 ranking points and head directly into the Germany P2.

Franco Stupaczuk and Jon Sanz leave Rotterdam as Premier Padel finalists after beating Galan and Chingotto and Nieto and Yanguas. Their new partnership has already produced a FIP Gold title, a FIP Platinum final and a Premier Padel final.

Ari Sánchez marked her 100th professional final by winning alongside Andrea Ustero. Their 6-4, 6-4 victory over Josemaría and González delivered a second consecutive Premier Padel title following Paris.

Juanlu Esbri and Iñigo Jofre defeated fellow Spaniards Javi Barahona and Maxi Sanchez Blasco 7-6, 6-7, 7-6 after more than two and a half hours. They had earlier beaten Sanyo Gutierrez and Alex Chozas 7-6, 6-4 in the semi-finals.

Veronica Virseda and Martina Fassio defeated Giulia Dal Pozzo and Nuria Rodriguez 6-1, 6-4 to win FIP Gold Perugia. It is Fassio's second FIP Gold title of 2026 and Virseda's first title of the season.

The Spanish pair have won consecutive Premier Padel tournaments in Paris and Rotterdam. In Rotterdam they defeated world No.1 pair Triay and Brea in the semi-finals before beating Josemaría and González in the final.

Coello and Tapia collected 600 points by winning Rotterdam while closest challengers Galan and Chingotto exited in the quarter-finals. The world No.1 pair now head immediately into the Germany P2.

The Spanish pair won FIP Gold Perugia after defeating Gutierrez and Chozas in the semi-finals and Barahona and Sanchez Blasco in a three-tiebreak final.

The Germany Premier Padel P2 runs from October 5 to 11, giving the leading players almost no recovery time after Rotterdam. It is the second event in a three-tournament run that continues with the Milano P1.

Thirteen players are already mathematically qualified for the Premier Padel Finals, but the remaining positions remain open as Düsseldorf, Milan and the closing CUPRA FIP Tour events offer further ranking points.

Coello and Tapia, Sánchez and Ustero, and Stupaczuk and Sanz all arrive in Germany after deep Rotterdam runs. The extremely short turnaround makes recovery and early-round performance an immediate storyline.

After winning both the Paris Major and Rotterdam P2, Sánchez and Ustero arrive as the form pair in women's padel. Düsseldorf will show whether their surge can continue against fresh challenges from Triay-Brea and Josemaría-González.

Their Gold-title, Platinum-final and Premier-final sequence has established the partnership remarkably quickly. Düsseldorf provides the first opportunity to see whether they can immediately reproduce that level after Sunday's Rotterdam final.
