Paquito Navarro world star of padel and legend of this sport, can’t take it anymore and exploded against the organizers of the tournaments, in this case those responsible for Premier Padel and the International Federation of Padel (FIP), for not taking into account the health of the players when establishing schedules taking into account the temperature and humidity that exists, for example, currently in Mexico, where the Major is taking place this week.
The 35-year-old veteran player from Seville suffered a huge fall during the round of 16 of the GNP Mexico Major Premier Padel. “Sport doesn’t work like that… It will bring us something. We play with humidity of over 90% at 27 degrees in Mexico. And that’s it”, he commented to the match referee. “If I lose, I will keep quiet, but if they win and they put the microphone on me…”, warned Paquito Navarro, who had to be treated due to the intense heat The Spanish player insisted that “it’s not normal, and I know it’s not your fault… We are dying, my brother. Dying. Dying”he said in a video he posted Padel review on X, formerly Twitter.

“Until someone dies, it won’t stop put yourself at that moment. Until someone dies…crazy. What a scandal! What a scandal! “They never think about the player,” complained Paquito Navarro sitting in the chair before returning to the field, where finally, with his partner Pablo Cardona, they defeated with difficulty the Swedes Vasques and Axelsson.
Obviously, the Sevillian kept his word and after the victory he took the microphone of the tournament to complain. “These conditions were among the most difficult of the year. I don’t know what needs to happen for us to play, I’m not telling you in a room, because I think this scenario deserves a Major, but I think the schedules should be adjusted more. Today I would like to state that I don’t know what needs to happen so that we can play at a more convenient time because the truth is that for me it’s not padel. “He who survives wins and today we survived” Paquito Navarro explained himself after the match in reproduced statements The Neverazo.
This is not the first time that players have complained about the conditions in which a tournament takes place. Especially when outdoors and in countries with higher temperature and humidity. Athletes believe that they are not counted on to set their schedules and that they simply take their business into account, which is something they criticize them for. Premier Padel and the FIP, a relationship once again strained as has happened in the past with the World Padel Tour.
