The 2026 Premier Padel season is officially underway, and the Saudi P1 delivered drama from the very first tournament of the year.

In this episode, we break down the biggest storylines from Riyadh — from Coello and Tapia proving the Golden Boys are still the team to beat, to a huge breakout moment for Andrea Ustero and Ari Sánchez as they take down the No.1s to claim the title.

We also dive into the first impressions of the new pairings, surprising results across both draws, and what this tournament tells us about the season ahead.

The first P1 of the year is done… and it looks like the Golden Boys are still golden.
