In the women’s draw, the top seeds are Nuria Rodriguez and Carolina Orsi, ranked number 29 and 33 in the FIP ranking. They are aiming for a second win after their victory in the FIP Silver Valencia. The Italian-Spanish pair is on the opposite side of the draw from Claudia Escacena (113) and Maria Portillo (90), who won the last FIP Bronze in Greece.

 

In the men’s draw, the top-seeded pair is Facundo Dominguez and Alvaro Melendez, ranked 73 and 84. They reached the semifinals of the FIP Silver Mediolanum Padel Cup in Palermo last week. On the other side of the draw are Emilio Sanchez and Daniel Santigosa, ranked 66 and 79 in the world.

 

The tournament in Chengdu will award 80 points for the FIP ranking.
