The Buenos Aires Premier Padel P1 confirmed a clear trend of the moment: the chasers took over the finals. Paula Josemaría and Bea González again dominated Delfi Brea/Gemma Triay, while Fede Chingotto and Ale Galán smothered Arturo Coello/Agustín Tapia, in two big match-ups that already looked like season classics.
Josemaría and González, five titles in a row and a series that is gaining weight
Paula Josemaría and Bea González got the ball rolling by beating Delfi Brea and Gemma Triay 6-3, 7-5. The scoreline tells part of the story: a very strong start, two quickly-constructed breaks, then a real ability to accelerate at the right moment in the second set, before the set turned towards a pressure-packed finish.
This fifth consecutive title, after Miami, Newgiza, Brussels and Asunción, confirms that the pair have changed dimension. What’s most striking is the repetition of the same scenario: five finals won in a row against the same opposition, No.1 Brea/Triay. In a discipline where a pair’s balance can be determined by a few details – a low return, a deeper bandeja, a better transition at the net – this consistency sends out a strong message.
Bea González recapped the week’s action, highlighting her team’s hard work and the difficulty of winning a tournament. Five in a row, of course, gives a different door to performance. As for Paula Josemaría, she continues to maintain a special bond with Argentina: after Mar del Plata in 2024 and Buenos Aires in 2025, she adds a third title in the country.
Chingotto and Galán hit even harder
In the men’s category, Fede Chingotto and Ale Galán played out a one-way traffic final against Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia: 6-2, 6-1. Beyond the scoreline, it’s the impression left that counts. The Spanish-Argentinian pair imposed their tempo, closed the angles and prevented Coello/Tapia from unleashing their usual power.
For the “Chingalán”, it’s a fourth consecutive victory over the world’s No. 1 after Gijón, Miami and Asunción, and already a fifth title in 2026. Galán insisted on the idea of daily progress, while Chingotto spoke of a “perfect week” and the special emotion of winning at home. The image of the Argentinian player lifting the trophy in Parque Roca recaps the mood: a sporting victory, but also a popular moment.
A record-breaking tournament ahead of the Major tournament in Rome
Buenos Aires not only offered two prestigious finals. The tournament also confirmed Argentina’s place in the geography of world padel, with 16,920 spectators expected for the semifinals at the Parque Roca.

The circuit now leaves South America with two certainties: Josemaría/González and Chingotto/Galán have taken a psychological lead, and the No.1 players know they can no longer expect an average final. Next stop: the BNL Italy Major Premier Padel, scheduled to take place at the Foro Italico from May 31 to June 7, where the pressure of the rankings and the Race could be stepped up a notch.
