Premier Padel

Premier Padel is the official professional padel tour that was launched in 2022 to promote the rapidly growing sport globally. It is sanctioned by the International Padel Federation (FIP) and was heavily backed by Qatar Sports Investments to elevate the sport's profile.

Yes, Premier Padel originally competed directly with the established World Padel Tour (WPT) for players and prestige. However, in 2024, the circuits unified under Premier Padel, making it the singular, definitive global tour for professional padel players.

The most prestigious events on the Premier Padel calendar are the "Major" tournaments, such as the Paris Major and the Rome Major, which offer the highest ranking points and prize money. These events attract the top-ranked male and female players in the world.

Premier Padel events are hosted in major cities across Europe, the Middle East, and the Americas to maximize global viewership. The tour often features high-profile stops in places like Doha, Madrid, and Milan, reflecting padel's expansion beyond its Spanish and South American roots.
