We’re back for Episode 28 — and it’s officially the one-year anniversary of The Off-Court Podcast. Thank you to everyone who’s been with us from day one. We can’t believe we’ve spent a full year talking padel every week, and somehow the sport keeps giving us even more to get into.

This week, we break down the Mexico Major — the final Major of the season and one of the standout tournaments of the year.

In this episode, we cover:

- Acapulco vibes: the changing court speed, the heat, and what felt like the best crowd of the entire season. Loud, animated, and full of Lebron supporters.

- Paquito and Jon Sanz: their chemistry, energy, and the quarter-final celebration that instantly became a highlight.

- Notable storylines: questions around Coki Yanguas, plus the ongoing conversation around Stupa and Di Nenno.

- Lebron and Leo Augsburger’s first real outing as a pair: a near exit in the Round of 16, a semifinal push, and a style of play so aggressive they’re practically standing on top of the net.

- The women’s final: Bea González and Claudia Fernández deliver a dominant performance against their former teammates. Bea at her sharpest and most aggressive, Claudia showing once again why she’s becoming the most reliable forehand on tour.

- The men’s final: Coello and Tapia close the door on the year-end No. 1 race. Chingotto and Galán had their window at 5–2 in the second set, but Coello and Tapia held firm when it mattered.

- A look ahead to the Barcelona Finals and the pairs heading into the last event of the season.

This episode is packed with strong storylines, reactions, and the usual Off-Court perspective.
Thanks again for supporting us through our first year. Here’s to many more.
