Argentina Padel Tour in Campana: an opening that immediately sets the tone
The scene is set: theArgentina Padel Tour will launch its 2026 calendar from April 3 to 5 at the World Padel Center Campana, in the province of Buenos Aires. The interest of this stage lies not only in its place in the season. It is billed as the first national tournament of the year and already boasts a cast capable of attracting attention well beyond the local public, starting with Leo Augsburger, Tino Libaak, Alex Chozas and Juani Rubini. Canal 12 Misiones detailed this season opener and the announced presence of several headline acts.
The circuit’s official account highlights a format of eight professional pairs, which promises a dense field from the very first matches. For Campana, the stakes are twofold: to open the season successfully from a sporting point of view, but also to establish from the outset an image of a circuit connected to the very highest level. In fact, local representatives of the host club insist that the event will be a showcase for the city and for Argentine padel.
Augsburger arrives launched, Chozas and Rubini with Posadas souvenir
Leo Augsburger ‘s name gives a special resonance to this opening. The Posadas-based player is going through a busy start to the year on the international scene, and he returns to Argentina with real competitive momentum. A few days before Campana, he reached the final of the Premier Padel P2 Cancún with Juan Lebrón, a strong signal of his current form and his ability to remain one of the most followed figures of his generation.
Around him, the big match-up gets even bigger with Tino Libaak, Alex Chozas and Juani Rubini. Libaak and Chozas have already started 2026 together on the FIP tour, where their new partnership quickly showed its mettle with a semifinal in Marseille. As for Rubini, his presence is an immediate reminder of the Argentina Padel Tour’s 2025 season-ending Finals: in December, he and Chozas won the Master Final in Posadas against Augsburger and Libaak. This continuity lends context to the Campana stage, without the need to artificially add to the rivalries.
A useful opportunity to gauge the current state of Argentine padel
This first stage is also valuable for what it can reveal. Between players already exposed on Premier Padel, young profiles in full promotion and returning to a more compact national circuit, Campana can serve as a barometer. The transition from an international environment to a court tournament, with its more nervous and direct exchanges, often reveals a great deal about the state of confidence, the quality of the return and the adaptability of the headline acts.
For the Argentina Padel Tour, the aim is to open the season with recognizable names, put the spotlight back on the national scene and show that a local event can be part of the dynamic of the world’s top level. In this respect, Campana is not just a return point, but a weekend which should already set the sporting scene for April.

- Leo Augsburger, Tino Libaak, Alex Chozas and Juani Rubini are among the announced headline acts.
