Special Episode, New Pairs, Geneva and Malaga Open Post and Pre

This week I thought it would be useful to talk about the pair changes and what has happened lately in the padel world. 
Yanguas-Stupaczuk, Di Nenno-Lebron, Paquito-Cardona and Alex Ruiz-Garrido are the new pairs I talk about in a bit more depth and also about the fastest final of the season and one of the best matches, which ended in a weird handshake, oh well, we all know Lebron now, don't we? 
Please enjoy and let me know if you would like to hear more about me blabbing...
