The player field for Germany&#8217;s tournament on the Qatar Airways Premier Padel Tour has now also been confirmed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The international padel elite has confirmed its participation. All players ranked in the world&#8217;s top 10 are expected in D\u00fcsseldorf, once again ensuring a top-class field for the second edition of the Germany P2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the international wildcards for the tournament have now also been confirmed. Subject to any last-minute changes, fans can once again look forward to seeing some of the best padel players in the world today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Last year&#8217;s champions return to D\u00fcsseldorf<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Special attention is also being paid to last year&#8217;s winning pairs. In the women&#8217;s draw, Gemma Triay and Delfina Brea claimed the title in 2025 after a spectacular three-set final against Ari S\u00e1nchez and Paula Josemar\u00eda. With a playing time of three hours and 20 minutes, the match was the second-longest women&#8217;s final in the history of the Premier Padel Tour. The men&#8217;s champions are also returning: Alejandro Gal\u00e1n and Federico Chingotto prevailed in the 2025 final against Arturo Coello and Agust\u00edn Tapia. For Gal\u00e1n, it was also the 50th tournament title of his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAfter last year&#8217;s strong debut, we are especially looking forward to welcoming the international padel elite back to D\u00fcsseldorf,\u201d says <strong>Dani Battistel, tournament director of the CUPRA Germany Premier Padel P2<\/strong> and managing director of mm sports padel. \u201cThe fact that we can once again count on such a top-class field shows how much weight the Germany P2 now carries within the Tour. For fans, it&#8217;s a special opportunity to experience the best players in the world up close.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>German players get another chance on the big stage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alongside the international world elite, several German pairs will also take to the court in D\u00fcsseldorf in 2026.
