A little math exercise, padel style… and we promise you it’s 100% true.
If tomorrow you write your name on a FIP board, win a match, and leave with 1 small FIP pointyou will be officially closer the number of points Juan Lebrón… that Lebrón is notAgustín Tapia.

Yes Yes.

The calculation that stings (especially for Lebrón)

  • Wall : 20 200 points
  • Lebrón : 8 535 points
  • Looking (by winning your first FIP ​​match): 1 points

Difference You → Lebrón : 8 points
Difference Lebrón → Tapia : 11 points

Conclusion?
Franck Binisti and Mario Cordero with 2 FIP points are closer to Juan Lebrón than Juan Lebrón is to Agustín Tapia.
Mathematically, it's unbeatable. From a sporting perspective… it's frankly fun.

A statistic that mainly shows… the colossal gap with Tapia and Coello

Behind this brief humorous interlude lies a fact: the gap is huge.
World number 1, Agustín Tapia et Arturo Coello, accumulate 20 200 points, a mattress that's hard to imagine because it completely overwhelms the circuit.

They win a lot, very often, and in the big events.
And in accounting terms, the gap with the pursuers has become almost… theoretical.

This dominance raises a question: is the distribution of points balanced?

This situation raises a topic that is starting to resurface:
la current distribution of points doesn't she give not too much to the victors, and not enough to those who follow?

Certainly, Tapia and Coello have a huge cushion in the rankings, but this gap only illustrates their dominance: if they regularly lost the big tournaments, they would see their total melt away very quickly, proof that this volume of points only exists because they have been consistent and dominant all year.

Conclusion: Keep hope alive, you're (almost) in the race

Then yes, you, with your future 1 FIP point, will theoretically be closer to Lebrón than Lebrón is to Tapia.

So don't lose hope, you're not far from the world's top 5.

I discovered padel directly during a tournament, and frankly, I didn't really like it at first. But the second time, it was love at first sight, and since then, I haven't missed a single match. I'm even ready to stay up until 3am to watch a final of Premier Padel !
