Germany P2: Coello-Tapia complete the Paris-Rotterdam-Düsseldorf treble and Calvo-Fernández take their revenge

The CUPRA Germany Premier Padel P2 (Castello Düsseldorf, €264,534 prize money) wrapped up its week on Sunday with blockbuster finals: Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia beat Franco Stupaczuk and Jon Sanz 6-2 7-6(5) for their 11th title of the season and third in a row — after the Paris Major and Rotterdam P2 — while Martina Calvo and Claudia Fernández lifted the women's trophy by seeing off Ari Sánchez and Andrea Ustero 6-3 6-0 in just 1h08, completing a full revenge for the last Major's final. Each champion pair takes home 600 points in the FIP Ranking and the Race to the Barcelona Finals.

Coello-Tapia: European treble and a 70-7 season

The men's final was the exact rematch of Rotterdam's, and the script barely changed: the world No. 1s now own 58 titles as a pair — eleven of them this season — and stretch their 2026 record to a devastating 70-7. The match itself, though, was tighter than a week ago. Stupa and Jon came out firing, breaking the champions' serve to lead 2-0, but Tapia-Coello answered with a run of six straight games to pocket the first set 6-2. In the second, the challengers broke again and served for the decider at 5-6, only for the Golden Boys to raise their level at the key moment and take the tie-break 7-5 after 1h24.

For Stupaczuk and Sanz, a third consecutive final defeat (after the Lyon FIP Platinum and Rotterdam) leaves a bittersweet taste: their push towards the top of the ladder keeps rolling, as they posted a second straight win over Galán-Chingotto (7-6(3) 6-4 in the semi-finals), a result that locks in their status as Tour No. 4 seeds from the Milan P1 onwards. In the other semi, Tapia-Coello gave Juan Lebrón and Leo Augsburger no chance (6-2 6-3 in 1h05).

Calvo-Fernández pull off the Paris Major revenge

The women's final was a statement. Claudia Fernández and Martina Calvo, who on Saturday had knocked out Paula Josemaría and Bea González in a 3h07 thriller (6-4 5-7 7-6(5), saving two match points), controlled the match from start to finish against the reigning Paris Major and Rotterdam champions. Sánchez-Ustero earned eight break points in the first set and converted none: frustration crept into their game and they conceded a bagel in the second set with no answers to Fernández's attacking play and Calvo's lobs.

It is the complete revenge of the Roland Garros final, where Sánchez and Ustero had won with the same authority (6-2 6-0). For the Spanish duo — Calvo, 18; Fernández, 20 — it is their second title together since pairing up in July, after the historic London P1, and it confirms that the youngest pair ever to win a Premier Padel event is no longer a promise: they are a top-table reality. Sánchez-Ustero, meanwhile, played their third consecutive final (Paris and Rotterdam, both won; Düsseldorf, lost) and keep chasing Triay-Brea, whom they had eliminated in the semi-finals for the third time this season (7-5 3-6 7-5).

A week of records at the Castello

Beyond the finals, Düsseldorf produced another milestone: Friday's quarter-final day was the fastest in Premier Padel history, with eight matches, eight two-set wins and just 131 games. The week also saw Coki Nieto and Mike Yanguas withdraw due to the Navarrese's physical issues, their spot going to a lucky loser in the men's draw.

What's next: Milan, Kuwait and the closing stretch

The tour does not rest: this very week the Milan P1 kicks off (October 10-18), the last European stop of the year before the final swing: Kuwait Major (October 23-31), Dubai P1 (November 8-15), Mexico Major (November 23-29) and the Premier Padel Finals in Barcelona in December. In between, from November 2 to 7, the FIP World Cup in Doha puts the team title on the line, with Stupa and Jon Sanz on the Argentina and Spain lists respectively. Coello-Tapia head into that stretch with a cushion, but a third straight title only raises the bar of what is already a historic season.
