London hosted its first-ever Premier Padel P1 from August 2-9, 2026, and the week delivered exactly the kind of drama the sport needed for its UK debut. More than 20,000 fans packed Olympia across the tournament, world No. 1 pairs fell in both finals, and an 18-year-old made history. Here's everything that happened, with the full scores and stats.
London P1 2026: quick facts

- Venue: Olympia, London (Premier Padel's first-ever UK stop)
- Attendance: 20,000+ spectators across the week

Men's final: Coello-Tapia grind out an eighth title
World No. 1s Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia beat Federico Chingotto and Alejandro Galán 6-3, 5-7, 7-5 in a final that went the distance. Coello and Tapia broke twice to take the opener, Chingotto and Galán hit back immediately in the second, and the decider stayed on serve until Coello and Tapia found the break they needed at 6-5.
It's their eighth title of the 2026 season — following Riyadh, Cancún, Rome, Valencia, Valladolid, Bordeaux and Málaga — and it came one week after they missed out on the final in Pretoria. Galán and Chingotto stay on six titles for the year, still chasing the top spot.
Women's final: Calvo, 18, becomes the youngest champion in Premier Padel history
In the women's final, fourth seeds Claudia Fernández and Martina Calvo upset top-seeded world No. 1s Gemma Triay and Delfi Brea 7-5, 6-3 in 1 hour and 45 minutes. Fernández and Calvo raced to a 3-0 lead, survived a fightback to close out the first set, then opened a 5-0 lead in the second before finishing the job at 5-3.
The win means more than a trophy. At 18 years, 1 month and 4 days old, Martina Calvo is now the youngest player ever to win a Premier Padel title — beating Andrea Ustero's record, set in Bordeaux, by 20 days. It's also just the second tournament Fernández and Calvo have played together: a week earlier in Pretoria, this same pair lost the final to Triay and Brea. In London, they turned the result around.
"To win my first tournament is an achievement I've always wanted. If I had played in many finals and not won, my head would be all over the place! We are very happy." — Martina Calvo
