Lisboa, Nuno and Miguel Deus the stars at Cristiano Ronaldo’s home

The final at the FIP Gold Paredes, followed by the win at the FIP Silver Dubai in April and at the Silver Koksijde. At the FIP Silver Lisboa Racket Centre by Lusotendas – the new Portuguese stop of the CUPRA FIP Tour – brothers Miguel and Nuno Deus (world number 37) lead the men’s draw of 32 pairs, at the home of legend Cristiano Ronaldo, a long-time padel fan and owner of this sports center in Lisbon, which is hosting an international circuit tournament for the first time. Alongside the Portuguese brothers, attention is also on the Spanish duo Guillermo Collado (53) and Pol Hernandez (44), winners of three CUPRA FIP Tour titles in 2025. Right behind them are Mario Del Castillo-Lucho Capra, Enrique Goenaga-Luis Hernandez, and Rodrigo Coello with Boris Castro, who returns to Portugal after winning the FIP Bronze last June.

 

In the women’s draw, the top seeds are Melania Merino (48 FIP ranking) and Ana Nogueira (37), chased by the finalists of the FIP Silver Mediolanum Padel Cup Palermo, Sofia Saiz and Marina Lobo. Among the home players stand out Patricia Ribeiro with Clarinha Santos (women’s draw 7th seeds).
