Welcome To American Padel

A public-private partnership between the City of Amarillo and a local tennis nonprofit turned a grand slam champion's pitch into two publicly accessible padel courts.
At the kind invitation of summit organizer Alex Ponseti, I had the opportunity to represent the US Padel Association and speak on a panel at the Padel World Summit (PWS) held in Barcelona at the end of May.
The USPA is now taking registrations from eligible senior players who want to represent the country at the fourth edition of the tournament, running September 12–19, 2026. With both men's and women's squads targeting medals after strong showings in previous editions, competition for roster spots will be fierce.
Padel Clube in Mundelein, Illinois, hosted the latest stop on the FIP Promises Tour from May 29 to 31, with over 40 junior players across three age divisions competing for continental ranking points.
