A parade of champions. The motorola razr Miami Premier Padel P1, the first tournament in the history of the Qatar Airways Premier Padel professional circuit to be played in the United States, is set to welcome the world’s top female players, all competing for the 1,000 FIP ranking points awarded to the winning pair.
In 2024, Spanish duo Paula Josemaria and Ari Sanchez hit double digits, winning ten titles. And 2025 has started at the same pace for the world No. 1s, with a P1 victory in Riyadh and a final in the P2 of Gijon. Already part of padel history, Paula and Ari are the perfect team: Josemaria (nicknamed Paulita Dinamita for her power) plays on the right, while Ari is the strategist on the left.
To challenge the dominance of the Spanish pair, the No. 2 and No. 3 seeds have changed. Gemma Triay, who won six titles in 2024 with young talent Claudia Fernandez (born in 2006), has teamed up with Argentinian Delfina Brea—the daughter of renowned coach Nito Brea—to try and take the world No. 1 ranking. This new partnership already secured two titles at the P2 in Gijon and Cancun.
Meanwhile, Bea Gonzalez and Claudia Fernandez, former partners of Brea and Triay respectively, have decided to join forces. In Riyadh, they immediately reached the final, although they couldn’t play due to Gonzalez’s injury. When fully fit, Gonzalez is a dominant force, especially alongside a natural talent like Claudia Fernandez.
Among the main challengers to the top three seeded pairs at the motorola razr Miami Premier Padel P1 are Marta Ortega and Sofia Araujo. Ortega, a Spanish player known as La Doctora for her medical degree, made history by winning the first-ever “combined” Premier Padel tournament in Rome 2023 with Gemma Triay. She repeated her success in Genova (2024) and NewGiza (Egypt) with Portuguese star Araujo, a key figure in Portugal’s rising padel scene, which is also being boosted by the Deus brothers (Nuno and Miguel) and Cristiano Ronaldo, who attended the P1 in Riyadh and even streamed the tournament finals on his YouTube channel.
Experience and youth will collide at the Miami Beach Convention Center. While veterans Lucia Sainz and Patty Llaguno, both 40 years old, remain competitive (just outside the world’s top 10, alongside another Spanish legend, Alejandra Salazar), the NextGen is ready to take over. 19-year-old Argentine Claudia Jensen, winner of the P1 in Acapulco with Jessica Castelló in 2024, is one to watch, as is the young duo Alejandra Alonso and Andrea Ustero—just 35 years old combined—who already made it to the Qatar Airways Premier Padel Finals and, in Ustero’s case, a Major final at Roland Garros alongside Delfi Brea. For Alonso and Ustero, 2025 could be their breakout year, and their journey toward the top will pass through the Motorola Razr Miami Premier Padel P1.
