Maintains WPT streak of 22 straight wins: ”We don't realize what we are doing”

22 straight wins and five straight titles on the World Padel Tour. Agustin Tapia and Arturo Coello maintain their streak and take the Granada Open title after winning the final against Franco Stupaczuk and Martin Di Nenno.

It was bang, bang. Then Agustin Tapia and Arturo Coello were once again the title holders on the World Padel Tour. This after winning the final 6-4, 7-5 against Franco Stupaczuk and Martin Di Nenno on the high-speed surface of the Granada Open.

— We don't realize what we are doing now. We take it match by match. Arturo was great today and saved me a lot, said Agustin Tapia in the interview with WPT's Nacho Palencia after the match.

Yes, the streak is now 22 straight wins on the WPT and five consecutive titles. Who would have thought that before the season?

— We have confidence right now. When you have low self-confidence, it's hard to see that you can win a point. Now it's the opposite, says Tapia about the pair's incredible form.

Granada is 738 meters above sea level, so the conditions were extremely fast. This, of course, suits the aggressive Tapia and Coello perfectly.

The pair was tough to pass via lobs, and it was all about Martin Di Nenno and Franco Stupaczuk passing the pair through angles and in the low game. This requires enormous concentration, and the pair performed well throughout the match.

Two breaks were enough

— Sometimes the opponents make it difficult for us, today Franco and Martin did it, and I want to congratulate their team as well, says Coello after the match.

But they never got the chance to break Tapia and Coello, who excellently defended their serve. Instead, the match was decided in two games, where they managed to break Martin Di Nenno and Franco Stupaczuk's serve. 

One at 5-4 in the first set and the other at 6-5 in the second set.

— I love playing in Spain. Whatever part of the country it is. I always feel at home here.

However, the next competition will not be played in Spain. It will be the Brussels Open, a competition with entirely different conditions, and we can expect a much slower game than previous competitions.
