October 26, 2026 · Kuwait Major
Kuwait’s opening round is a reminder to look beyond the seeds
Qualifiers Adam Axelsson and Mario Ortega came from a set down to beat Maxi Sánchez and Sanyo Gutiérrez, while Juan Cruz Belluati and Martín Abud also recovered from losing the first set to advance. Abud earned his first main-draw win at a Major. Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto withdrew before playing because of Galán’s injury.
The useful story is not that every qualifier is about to upset a favourite. Early rounds reward attention to the draw as it is now, rather than the names on a pre-event poster. For a club player watching the matches, follow what changes after the lost first set: return position, rally patience and which pair gets a controlled first volley.
October 26, 2026 · US team padel
A Las Vegas date for the team calendar
Pro Padel League announced MGM Resorts International as title sponsor for its Las Vegas tournament on November 18–21. This belongs on the team-league calendar, not the Premier Padel draw.
For a US spectator choosing one event, that distinction is more useful than the sponsor name. Decide whether you want to follow a city team across its matches or a particular pair through a tour tournament. Before booking travel, confirm the actual session and entry terms; an announcement establishes an event plan, not the availability of a particular seat or player.
