On November 25, the port of Acapulco, Guerrero, will be dressed in gala for the Major Premier Padel 2024, one of the four Grand Slams of this sport and, of course, one of the most important in the world. This tournament is one of the four biggest in the world, and it will be a week full of sports with the best padel ever seen in Mexico, as the participation of the Top 100 players has never been confirmed before.
Jorge Mañé, spokesperson for the championship and president of the Mexican Padel Federation, confirmed that the event will take place at the GNP Arena normally, as it did not suffer severe damage after Hurricane John passed. "I insist, the courts are arriving, the carpets have arrived, and we are very excited and working at full capacity," said Mañé.
The Pan American Federated Clubs Tournament will also take place at the GNP Arena on the same dates, with representation from 14 countries. Mañé highlighted the importance of this event for the sport, mentioning that padel is the fastest-growing sport in the world and this tournament will be an opportunity to show solidarity and support those affected by the recent floods in Acapulco.
The sporting event, which will start on November 25, aims to revive the port of Acapulco and generate a positive impact on the local economy. Despite the floods that the GNP Arena suffered due to the hurricane, the facilities have fully recovered in less than a week, and the tournament will proceed as planned.
The participation of prominent figures in padel, both national and international, is expected, and massive attendance at the tournament is anticipated. Organizers have worked hard to ensure that the event is successful, with appropriate security and logistics measures to welcome spectators.
The Major Premier Padel 2024 will be a unique opportunity to enjoy the best professional and amateur padel in a competitive and friendly atmosphere. The sports community and padel fans have an unmissable date in Acapulco to witness one of the most important events of this sport worldwide.
