00:00This is Paddle Vibes from Miami.
00:14For the first time, Premier Paddle lands in the United States
00:17and does it here in Miami at the South Beach Convention Center.
00:20Are you ready for the tournament?
00:22Of course. I'll do whatever it takes.
00:24Working aggressively.
00:26Christiano del Paddle.
00:27How's the chorizo?
00:28The chorizo is delicious.
00:29Yes.
00:30As a novelty, after 16 years as number one in the world ranking,
00:35Fernando Velazteguín will be the tournament director.
00:38I'll take you to see the venue.
00:41And speaking of Fernando Velazteguín,
00:44we have the great director of the tournament.
00:46Good morning, Xana. How are you?
00:47How are you?
00:48Are you going to show me the venue?
00:49I'm going to show you that Premier Paddle is in Miami for the first time,
00:53at Miami Beach, at the Convention Center.
00:55So come, I'm going to show you how everything looks.
00:57Let's go.
00:59How many games are going to be played here?
01:01Here we have six games a day,
01:04from Monday, when the pre-season started,
01:07until Sunday, which will be the two finals,
01:09on Saturday the four semis,
01:10but until Friday, from Monday to Friday,
01:12there will be six games in the Central,
01:14and six in each of the other fields.
01:16I wanted to ask you, now that it has been a very sweet transition,
01:20I mean, you finished playing two months ago.
01:23Yes.
01:24And now you are the director of a tournament.
01:26Yes, but I am a person who likes to take the steps a little early,
01:31and I was preparing my professional post-career.
01:34Much earlier.
01:35Yes.
01:38What does Miami have, what does the Miami tournament have,
01:41that no other tournament has been held so far?
01:44That it is in Miami, which for me is the gateway to the US Paddle,
01:50it makes it, just because it is the gateway to the US sport,
01:55it makes it a very special city,
01:59because I have no doubt that there will be a before and after
02:02of the first Premier Paddle in Miami for our sport.
02:06I invite you to come and try the sport, which is the sport of football.
02:13The most important couples of the tournament will be present here in Miami.
02:17Arturo Coelho and Agustín Tapia will try to defend that leadership
02:21that they have done so far in an excellent way.
02:24Agust MacLlanguas and Coqui Nieto will try, for their part,
02:27to reach the most advanced phase of the tournament.
02:30For their part, Javi Garrido and Martín Dineno have decided to
02:33launch a new coach here in Miami to optimize the conditions
02:37that have been good so far, but they want to improve
02:40that last step that is missing.
02:42And let's not forget Juan Lebrón and Stupa,
02:44who have just won the Cancun P2.
02:47Bea González and Claudia Fernández will compete again
02:50after having taken a break in Cancun,
02:53and the expectations are very high.
02:55But also watch out for Del Cibrea and Yatjen Matriay,
02:57who have just won.
02:58Precisely, Cancun are a new couple,
03:00but they are doing fantastically.
03:04Do you know how to do the Vibora?
03:05The number one in France, Alix Colombon,
03:07explains the tips to master this stroke.
03:10We are here with Alix Colombon,
03:12and we are going to do a super fast ping-pong from Miami.
03:15Let's see, Alix, number one in France.
03:18Yes.
03:19How do you feel first, before starting the ping-pong,
03:21that you are in Miami?
03:23What are the sensations?
03:24Very good.
03:25The truth is that it is a luxury to be here in Miami.
03:27We are enjoying the city a lot,
03:29although, of course, we are training hard
03:32and preparing as best as possible for tomorrow's game.
03:35But well, we feel good and happy to be here.
03:38Indoor or outdoor?
03:39Indoor.
03:40Defense or attack?
03:42Defense.
03:43Defense.
03:44Conservative or aggressive?
03:46Conservative.
03:47Yes? Are you sure?
03:48Well, I'm working on the aggressive part,
03:50but my character is more conservative.
03:53OK.
03:54Your strongest point?
03:55The Vibora.
03:57OK.
03:58Well, about the Vibora,
03:59I would love you to teach me a little bit
04:01how to do the Vibora.
04:02OK, a pleasure.
04:03Let's do it.
04:04Well, the Vibora is like a...
04:07It's not a volley, but it's like a ball.
04:10It's not a volley, but it's like a high volley.
04:13That is, instead of hitting the head level,
04:17it's a little above.
04:19OK?
04:20And the idea is...
04:21Down?
04:22That is, more forward than down.
04:25Ah.
04:26That is, a little both, but more forward than down.
04:28OK.
04:29OK?
04:30The idea is that you are almost in a straight arm
04:33when you hit it.
04:34OK.
04:35OK?
04:36And there.
04:41Well, it's not bad.
04:42It's not bad.
04:43It's not bad.
04:47Good.
04:49You see, the last one,
04:50you hit it a little close to the goal.
04:52I have to be further away.
04:53The idea is that it is further away.
04:54Almost in a straight arm.
04:55Almost.
04:57Good.
04:59The gesture is fine.
05:00I hope not.
05:01Only now, now the ball goes away,
05:03because when you hit it,
05:04you have the ball that is looking at the sky.
05:06And it has to be more parallel.
05:07Of course, it has to be a little more...
05:09Parallel.
05:10Parallel.
05:11OK.
05:12OK?
05:13Let's see.
05:15Vertical.
05:17That's it.
05:18Very good.
05:19Very good.
05:20Good?
05:21Yes, yes.
05:22Hey, it's not bad, right?
05:23It's not bad.
05:24In a short time.
05:25Hey, I loved the Masterclass with you.
05:28This new touch of vibora, thanks to you,
05:30I will remember.
05:31Perfect.
05:32Have a good time in Miami.
05:33Thank you very much.
05:34Good luck.
05:35Thank you very much.
05:37Normally, we ask the players before the games
05:40how they prepare,
05:41but what do they do in their free time?
05:43Right now, I'm very hungry
05:45and I know there is a player in the tournament
05:47who loves to eat.
05:48Come with me.
05:50Chingo, what's up?
05:52Good morning.
05:53How are you?
05:54Very good.
05:56Good morning.
05:57Good morning.
05:58I know you just won a game,
06:00so I think you deserve a good lunch, right?
06:03It would be good to recover energy,
06:05because we ran a lot, so yes.
06:06Well, I had prepared an Argentine barbecue for you.
06:09What do you think?
06:10I'll sign it.
06:11Let's go.
06:20From the party, I imagine.
06:22Well, from time to time,
06:23when there is a free weekend,
06:25we try to do something,
06:27but quite calmly.
06:28Lately, we've been training more than…
06:30Let's do it.
06:31Let's do it.
06:33What do you think of Miami?
06:35It's incredible.
06:36Do you live here?
06:39With your parents close, of course.
06:41Yes, obviously, but…
06:44You see how it's not just in the pavilion?
06:46Almost.
06:47We're here.
06:50We are in front of God.
07:00Well, Chingo, we finally sat down to have lunch.
07:03I only had to wait three hours.
07:05I've never made anyone wait so long.
07:08I'm so hungry.
07:11Well, I'll explain everything to you.
07:13Tell me.
07:14The first thing would be this,
07:16which would be chorizo, bat, and mussel.
07:19That, salt and lemon.
07:20Madness.
07:21We have entrails and barbecue strips.
07:24You eat this,
07:25but put half, half, and a little mussel.
07:28A little entrails.
07:29And from here?
07:30Because, of course,
07:31because in the end,
07:32the grill always brings the best.
07:36I have a phrase there that,
07:38well, obviously,
07:39I'm lucky that my parents
07:41gave me a very good education
07:43and raised me in the best way.
07:45And from the first moment,
07:47they gave me a phrase at the door
07:49that I always have in my head,
07:51which is always trying to be the best,
07:53not believing it.
07:54And that's the phrase I have constantly
07:56for my day-to-day,
07:57that I try to be the best without believing it
07:59and give it all in every training,
08:01in every day, in every situation.
08:03That is, always being humble.
08:06But in the end,
08:07you have to believe it a little, don't you?
08:09Man, you have to have a little self-love,
08:11obviously,
08:12because if not,
08:13obviously,
08:14pulling yourself down doesn't work.
08:16I trust myself and the team a lot.
08:18And yes,
08:19but well,
08:20that phrase always accompanies me.
08:22And well,
08:23as good Argentine desserts,
08:24we have pancakes with dulce de leche.
08:26In my case, only coffee,
08:27so I don't have a nap.
08:28But I'm going to bite a little bit
08:30and I'm going to try it
08:31because it looks amazing.
08:36I'm going.
08:43It's just that the dulce de leche...
08:45Very good.
08:46After this, after training...
08:48No, no, no,
08:49now I have to go out and run on the field
08:50to burn these calories.
08:51Give me a spoonful.
08:53Well, thank you very much, Chingo,
08:54for this day with me
08:57I loved the food.
08:58It was a great plan.
08:59And now I just wish you
09:00a lot of luck
09:01in what's left of the year
09:02and the tournaments.
09:03Thank you very much.
09:04I had a great time
09:05and the food was incredible.
09:08The number one in the world,
09:09Arturo Coelho,
09:10has moved to Miami.
09:11We want to know
09:12what a day of training with him is like.
09:15Arturo, good morning.
09:16How are you?
09:17How are you?
09:18All good?
09:19Have you had breakfast yet?
09:20Very good.
09:22Well,
09:23I don't know if you're ready
09:24for a day of training
09:26with me.
09:27100%.
09:28Come, I'm going to show you
09:29what it's like with me.
09:30Let's go.
09:31I can be here all day,
09:32man, yes.
09:33If I don't think about it,
09:34I'll be here all day.
09:36You are now
09:37the one who is opening
09:38the doors to padel
09:39in the United States.
09:41Well, yes,
09:42in the end,
09:43with my team,
09:44it's true that we decided
09:45that, in part,
09:46I wanted a change,
09:47I wanted to move.
09:48We saw a very good opportunity
09:49to grow padel here
09:51and, at the same time,
09:52grow as an athlete,
09:53as a figure.
09:54Of course,
09:55to be the number one
09:56in the world,
09:57you have to be all day.
09:58It's what forces me
09:59to do tapia,
10:00to play with him.
10:01But it's more Christian.
10:02I'm Christian.
10:03But it's Christian.
10:04With respect to Messi,
10:05but I'm super Christian.
10:06In addition,
10:07the first video
10:08that Christian made
10:09of padel,
10:10he did it with you.
10:11Bye.
10:12Well, as you know,
10:13padel is flooding
10:14the city of Miami.
10:15There are more and more
10:16tracks,
10:17more players
10:18addicted to this sport
10:19that grows
10:20more and more every day.
10:21And today,
10:22knowing that Premier Padel
10:23has also landed
10:24in Miami,
10:25we are here
10:26at the Miami Open
10:27at Hard Rock Stadium,
10:28where there will also be
10:29a padel track.
10:30Mirra Andreeva,
10:31Arturo Coelho
10:32and many other tennis players
10:33will play on this track.
10:41And the match
10:42between Gitanes took place.
10:44Coelho and his compatriot
10:45Carlos Alcaraz
10:46had a moment
10:47to meet
10:48before the tennis player
10:49started in the Miami Open.
10:51The first Premier Padel tournament
10:52in the United States
10:53left one of the most spectacular
10:54semifinals so far,
10:55which lasted
10:56two hours
10:57and 51 minutes.
10:59The match
11:00extremely close
11:01between Cookie Nieto
11:02and Mike Yanguas
11:03against Galán
11:04and Chingotto
11:05was epic.
11:062-6,
11:076-4
11:08and 6-7.
11:09The tiebreaker
11:10was reached
11:11in the third set
11:12and they took the victory
11:13for small details,
11:14the number two
11:15couple of the tournament.
11:16Surprisingly,
11:17the other semifinal
11:18in which Coelho
11:19and Tapia faced
11:20Lebrón and Estupa
11:21against all odds
11:22fell on the part
11:23of the recent winners
11:24in Cancun.
11:264-6,

11:28and out of the final
11:29for the first time
11:30in 16 consecutive finals
11:31to the number one
11:32of the tournament.
11:34The men's final
11:35was full of emotion.
11:37For the first time
11:38after their breakup
11:39Galán and Lebrón
11:40faced each other
11:41in a final.
11:42First easy set
11:43for the number two
11:44and second set
11:45that was fought
11:46in the tiebreaker
11:47ending with the victory

11:55was starring
11:56Ari Sánchez
11:57and Paula José María
11:58against Gemma Triai
11:59and Delphi Brea.
12:00After losing
12:01the first set
12:02Bea and Triai
12:03came back
12:04to get a victory
12:05for 2-6,

12:07and 6-4.
12:08In this way
12:09they achieved
12:10their third consecutive title
12:11after the triumphs
12:12in Gijón and Cancun.
12:14Without a doubt
12:15it is a new couple
12:16but with incredible results.
12:18Congratulations girls!
