Padel by the Numbers: Twelve Months on Tour

21 October 2026

8,762 matches, 255 tournaments and the 22% that went the distance — a padel season counted rather than remembered.

Nobody is on court this week. So instead of pretending otherwise, here is what the last twelve months of padel actually looked like — counted off our own results pages, not remembered.

A year, in one paragraph

8,762 matches. 255 tournaments. 3664 players who won or lost at least one of them. About one in 5 went to a deciding set. Padel's reputation for being close survives contact with the arithmetic, just.

The fixture that would not go away

Coello/Tapia against Galan/Chingotto, over and over. 15 meetings, and Coello/Tapia won 10 of them. That is not a rivalry so much as a habit. The most recent went to Coello/Tapia, 6-3 4-6 7-6.

The one that would not end

Nenno/Augsburger and Gala/Rodrigo played 39 games before anyone could go home: 7-6 6-7 6-7. Spare a thought for whoever had the court booked after them.

And the one that ended early

Ortega/Arroyo beat Göne/Ozbayrak a 0-6 0-6. Twelve games in the year's shortest working afternoon.

The pair who never sat down

Chingotto/Galan played 118 matches. A 84% win rate across that much padel is a season most players would take.

Every number here is recounted from our archive each time this page rebuilds, so it is never a stale claim about a season that has moved on. It goes back to August 2022 — browse it by tournament or player, and the odds comparison wakes up when the tour does.
