This is Paddle Vibes from Miami.
00:14
For the first time, Premier Paddle has landed in the States, and during the whole week,
00:19
the best paddle players in the world will be playing here at the Miami Beach Convention
00:24
Center.
00:25
After 16 consecutive years occupying the first position in the worldwide ranking, Fernando
00:43
Velazqueguin will now be the director of the tournament.
01:44
What does Miami have, what does the Miami Tournament have that no other tournament has
01:50
celebrated so far?
01:51
That it is in Miami, which for me is the gateway to the United States paddle, it makes it,
01:58
just because it is the gateway to sports in the United States, it makes it a very special
02:05
city, because I have no doubt that there will be a before and after of the first Premier
02:11
Paddle in Miami for our sport.
02:13
I invite you to come and try the sport, which is the sport of football.
02:20
The best players of the tournament will be present here in Miami.
02:23
Agustin Tapia and Arturo Coelho are determined to fight for their leader position, but keep
02:28
an eye on Ale Galán and Chingotto, and also Mike Yanguas and Coquiñeto, who are ready
02:33
to reach the final.
02:35
Javi Garrido and MartÃn Dineno have a new coach to improve their skills, but let's
02:39
not forget Juan Lebrón and Franco Estupazú, who are fresh off their wins in Cancun.
02:44
There are very high expectations in the couple formed by Bea González and Claudia Fernández,
02:49
even though they decided to skip the Cancun tournament.
02:53
Despite being a very new couple, Del Fibrea and Jim Matriai are showing that they have
02:58
what it takes to be number one in this 2025.
03:01
France number one Alix Colombon explains the best tips to improve our paddle skills.
03:08
We are here with Alix Colombon and we are going to do a super fast ping pong from Miami.
03:13
Alix, number one in France.
03:16
Yes.
03:17
How do you feel before starting the ping pong?
03:20
You are in Miami.
03:21
What are the feelings?
03:22
Very good.
03:23
The truth is that it is a luxury to be here in Miami.
03:25
We are enjoying the city a lot, although of course we are training hard and preparing
03:31
ourselves as best as possible for tomorrow's walk.
03:34
But well, we feel good and happy to be here.
03:36
Indoor or outdoor?
03:37
Indoor.
03:38
Defense or attack?
03:42
Defense.
03:43
Defense.
03:44
Conservative or aggressive?
03:46
Conservative.
03:47
Yes?
03:48
Are you sure?
03:49
Well, I'm working on the aggressive part, but my character is more conservative.
03:53
OK.
03:54
Your strongest point?
03:55
The viper.
03:56
OK.
03:57
Well, speaking of the viper, I would love you to teach me a little how to do the viper.
04:02
OK.
04:03
A pleasure.
04:04
Let's do it.
04:05
Well, the viper is like a...
04:07
It's not a volley, but it's like a high volley.
04:11
Instead of hitting the head level, it's a little above.
04:17
OK?
04:18
And the idea is...
04:19
Down?
04:20
I mean, more forward than down.
04:23
Ah.
04:24
I mean, a little both, but more forward than down.
04:26
OK.
04:27
The idea is that you are almost in a straight arm when you hit it.
04:32
OK.
04:33
OK?
04:34
OK.
04:35
Well, it's not bad.
04:36
It's not bad.
04:37
It's not bad.
04:38
Good.
04:39
You see, the last one, you hit it a bit close to the body.
04:40
I have to be further away.
04:41
The idea is that it's further away, almost in a straight arm.
04:42
Almost.
04:43
Good.
04:44
The gesture is fine.
04:45
But it's not.
04:46
Only now, now the ball is going away because when you hit it, you have the stopper that
04:47
is more parallel.
04:48
And it has to be more parallel.
04:49
Of course, it has to be parallel.
04:50
OK.
04:51
OK.
04:52
OK.
04:53
OK.
04:54
OK.
04:55
OK.
04:56
OK.
04:57
OK.
04:58
OK.
04:59
OK.
05:00
OK.
05:01
OK.
05:02
OK.
05:04
It's not.
05:06
It's not.
05:07
It's not.
05:08
It's not.
05:09
It's not.
05:10
OK.
05:11
It's ok.
05:12
But it's really not.
05:13
Not well.
05:14
It's not parallel.
05:15
No, it's not parallel.
05:16
It's not.
05:17
Yes.
05:18
It's parallel.
05:19
Sure it has to be a little more hung up.
05:20
OK.
05:21
OK.
05:22
Let's look.
05:26
It's not.
05:27
It's OK.
05:28
It's OK.
05:29
Good.
05:30
Yes, yes.
05:31
Hey, it's not bad, isn't it?
05:35
Normally, we ask the players before the games how they prepare,
05:40
but what do they do in their free time?
05:42
Right now, I'm really hungry,
05:43
and I know there's a player in the tournament who loves to eat.
05:46
Come with me.
05:48
Chingo, I think...
05:50
Yes.
05:51
Good morning.
05:52
How are you?
05:53
Very well.
05:54
Good morning.
05:55
Good morning.
05:56
I know you just won a game,
05:58
so I think you deserve a good lunch, right?
06:01
It would be good to regain energy, because we ran a lot, so yes.
06:04
Well, I had prepared an Argentinean barbecue for you.
06:07
What do you think?
06:08
I'll sign it.
06:09
Let's go.
06:18
And that's it.
06:19
And the party, I imagine, too, from time to time.
06:21
From time to time, when we have a free weekend,
06:23
we try to do something, but it's been pretty quiet lately.
06:26
We've been training more than...
06:28
Let's go!
06:29
Let's go!
06:31
What do you think of Miami?
06:33
It's incredible.
06:34
Do you live here?
06:37
With your parents close by, of course.
06:39
Yes, obviously, but...
06:42
You see how it's not just in the pavilion?
06:44
Almost.
06:45
We're here.
06:48
We're in front of God.
06:58
Well, Chingo, we've finally sat down to have lunch.
07:01
I just had to wait three hours.
07:04
I've never seen anyone wait so long.
07:06
I'm so hungry.
07:09
Well, I'll explain everything to you.
07:11
Tell me.
07:12
The first thing would be this,
07:14
which would be chorizo, bacon, and mussels.
07:17
That, salt and lemon.
07:19
Madness.
07:20
We have entrails and barbecue strips.
07:22
You eat this, but put half, half, and a little bit of mussels.
07:26
A little bit of entrails.
07:28
And from here...
07:29
It's expensive, because in the end,
07:30
the barbecue brings the best.
07:33
I have a phrase there that...
07:36
Well, obviously, I'm lucky that my parents
07:39
gave me a very good education.
07:41
They raised me in the best way.
07:43
And from the first moment,
07:45
they gave me a phrase at the door,
07:47
which I always have in my head,
07:49
which is, always try to be the best, don't believe it.
07:52
And that's the phrase I have for my day-to-day life,
07:55
that I try to be the best without believing it,
07:57
and to give it all in every training,
07:59
in every day, in every situation.
08:01
So, always being humble.
08:04
But in the end, you have to believe it a little, right?
08:07
Man, you have to have a little self-love, obviously,
08:10
because if not, obviously,
08:11
pulling yourself down doesn't work.
08:14
I trust myself and the team a lot.
08:16
And yes, but well, that phrase always accompanies me.
08:19
And well, as good Argentine desserts,
08:22
we have pancakes with dulce de leche.
08:24
In my case, only coffee, so I don't fall asleep at the party.
08:26
But I'm going to bite a little bit and I'm going to try it,
08:29
because it looks amazing.
08:35
I'm going.
08:41
The dulce de leche...
08:43
It's delicious.
08:44
But this, after training...
08:46
No, no, no, now I have to go out and run, people.
08:48
To burn these calories, one spoonful.
08:51
Well, thank you very much, Chingo, for this day with me.
08:55
I loved the food, it was a great plan.
08:58
And now I just wish you a lot of luck
09:00
in what's left of the year and the tournaments.
09:01
Thank you very much, I had a great time and the food was incredible.
09:06
World's number one Arturo Coelho has just moved to Miami
09:10
and we want to know how is one day training with him.
09:13
Arturo, good morning.
09:15
How are you?
09:16
How are you?
09:17
All good? Have you had breakfast already?
09:18
Very good.
09:20
Well, I don't know if you're ready
09:22
to have a day of training with you.
09:25
100%. Come, I'll show you what a day with me is like.
09:27
Let's go.
09:28
I can be here all day, man, yes.
09:31
If I don't think about it, I'll be here all day.
09:34
You're the one who's opening the doors
09:37
to the padel in the United States.
09:39
Well, yes, in the end, with my team,
09:41
it's true that we decided that I wanted a change,
09:44
I wanted to move.
09:45
We saw a very good opportunity to grow the padel here
09:50
and at the same time, I wanted to be an athlete, a figure skater.
09:52
Of course, to be the number one in the world,
09:54
you have to be here all day.
09:56
That's what forces me to do tapia, to play with it.
09:59
You're more of a Christian, right?
10:01
I'm a Christian, with respect to Messi,
10:03
but I'm a super Christian.
10:04
Also, the first video Christian made of padel,
10:07
he made it with you.
10:08
Bye.
10:10
So, as you can see, padel is growing in Miami
10:13
more and more each and every day.
10:15
The sport is gaining momentum
10:17
and right here at the Miami Open, at the Hard Rock Stadium,
10:20
we are also seeing a padel court.
10:22
In this padel court, Arturo Cuello is going to play,
10:25
Miran Revas is going to play
10:26
and also so many other tennis players.
10:34
And then the Clash of Titans began.
10:38
Cuello and his compatriot, Carlos Alcaraz,
10:41
had a moment to face each other before the start of Miami Open.
10:45
The first Premier Padel Tournament in the United States
10:48
witnessed one of the most spectacular finals to date,
10:51
lasting two hours and 51 minutes.
10:54
The fiercely contested match between Coqui Nieto and Mike Yanguas
10:58
against Galán and Chingotto was epic.
11:01
The score went to a tie-break in the third set
11:03
and the tournament's number two pairing won by the narrowest of margins.
11:10
Surprisingly, the other semi-final
11:12
in which Cuello and Tapia faced Lebron and Stupa
11:15
fell against all odds to the recent winners in Cancun, 4-6, 4-6,
11:20
knocking the number ones out of the final.
11:23
This broke their streak of 16 consecutive finals.
11:27
The men's final was packed with excitement.
11:30
For the first time since their split,
11:32
Ale Galán and Lebron faced each other in a final.
11:35
An easy first set for the number two seeds,
11:37
the second set went to tie-break,
11:39
resulting in victory for Chingotto and Galán,
11:43
who claimed their first title of 2025 and were crowned Miami champions.
11:48
The women's final pitted Ari Sánchez and Paula José MarÃa
11:52
against Gemma Triai and Delphi Brea.
11:56
After losing the first set,
11:57
Brea and Triai rallied to win 2-6, 6-1, 6-4,
12:01
securing their third consecutive title after victories in Gijón and Cancun.
12:07
Undoubtedly a new pairing, but with incredible results.
12:11
Well, girls, congratulations, Miami champions.
12:14
I don't think you can start the year any better.
12:16
Totally, totally.
12:18
I think it was a very special tournament, a new tournament,
12:20
and we've been looking forward to winning this tournament since we arrived.
12:24
Gemma, what are your feelings?
12:25
You've changed and it seems like things are going well, right?
12:29
Yes, I can't be happier.
12:31
The couple is doing very well, the team too.
12:35
Very comfortable, very happy, enjoying the day-to-day.
12:39
The results are also keeping us company,
12:41
which also helps to make things flow better and bring more joy,
12:46
but I think we're doing a very good job
12:49
and we have to enjoy this moment.
12:51
Well, congratulations.
12:52
A great victory in Miami.
12:54
It's been a while since you've reached a final with this energy
12:58
and with a result like this, from Genoa.
13:01
What do you think?
13:03
Well, I'm really happy
13:05
because I've been working very hard for this tournament
13:08
and I'm always happy when there's a prize.
13:11
Well, all the people who are here,
13:13
who give us support and encourage us to keep fighting
13:18
and overcome any difficulties that come our way.
13:21
I want to thank all the people who built us,
13:24
who brought us here,
13:26
and, of course, my family and friends, who have always been here.
13:29
First tournament in the United States and you've won it.
13:32
So, I think you've started on the right foot
13:35
and I'll see you in the next tournament.
13:36
And that was everything from Miami Premier Paddle.
13:39
Don't forget to follow us on VMSports
13:41
and I'll see you on our next episode.
