With padel growing from just 15,000 players in Britain in 2019 to more than 1 million today, it was exciting to be part of one of the world’s fastest-growing sports
@alfreddunhillpadelclassic .
Alongside fellow sponsors
@alfreddunhill ,
@investecuk ,
@evelynpartners ,
@pragnelljewellery , and
@iwcwatches_uk and more, guests enjoyed exceptional hospitality with drinks from
@gusbourne_wine and
@maisonmirabeau .
A real highlight was the opportunity to take part in a padel clinic with
@aimeegibson , Britain’s No.1 female player.
The event also welcomed some of the sport’s biggest names, including Britain’s former male No. 1 and GB men’s coach
@john.leach ;
@fernando_belasteguin (“Bela”), world No.1 for an extraordinary sixteen years, and
@navarrocarolina , who held the women’s world No.1 ranking for nine consecutive years!
Plus, stars from other sports such as football with
@therealjoecole , English football coach and former professional footballer; former cricketers
@michaelvaughan and andrewstrauss_official; and Mercury MD’s ski race friend and four time Winter Olympian
@chemmyski . We definitely weren’t worthy and were in very esteemed company, thanks to
@ttb_sport !
