PANORAMIC PLAYERS LEADING DIFFERENT COMPETITIONS IN ASIA

Edu Altimires & Adrià Mercadal — Nº1 APPT, Champions in Phuket and Penang

If there is one pair that has set the tone for the 2026 APPT season, it is Edu Altimires & Adrià Mercadal. The Nº1 ranked pair on the Asia Pacific Padel Tour has arrived in 2026 with the same hunger that closed 2025 — and the results speak for themselves.

At the APPT Padel Phuket Blue Tree Open III (March 27–29), Edu and Adrià took the title in dominant fashion, adding another APPT trophy to their growing collection. Back-to-back weeks later, they carried that momentum straight into Penang, Malaysia, where they claimed victory at the APPT redONE Mobile PadelKu Open Penang (April 10–12) — making it back-to-back APPT titles to open the season.

The momentum does not stop there. At the APPT Grand Slam Platinum Hong Kong (April 17–19), Edu and Adrià reached the semi-finals, where they fell to eventual champions Jordi Casanova and Sergio Icardo. Reaching the last four in one of the most prestigious events on the APPT calendar — a Grand Slam Platinum — is yet another confirmation that this pair belongs at the very top of the game in Asia.

As Nº1 on the APPT ranking, Edu is not just winning tournaments — he is defining the standard for professional padel in the Asia Pacific region. We could not be prouder.

Pol Alsina & Enzo Chua — Competing at the FIP Circuit

While the APPT circuit is home territory for our players, Pol Alsina has taken a different path in 2026 — venturing onto the global FIP circuit alongside his partner Enzo Chua, the Nº1 player in Singapore.

The pair will be competing back-to-back in Kuala Lumpur, taking on the FIP Bronze and FIP Silver categories — events that attract a truly international field from across Asia, Europe and beyond. Taking on this level of competition week after week, in different categories, shows exactly the competitive drive and adaptability that defines Pol as a player.

Known for his elastic, showy style — those trademark tricky shots and explosive reflexes that have made him a fan favorite across Asia — Pol brings a unique energy to every match. Teaming up with Enzo Chua adds a new dimension to his game: a pairing of international flair and local knowledge that is making waves on the international scene.

Pol Alsina has been a PANORAMIC player since the very beginning of our journey, and his willingness to compete at every level — APPT, FIP Bronze, FIP Silver — reflects the mentality we value most: always showing up, always competing, always growing.

Novela Rezha, Indonesia Nº1

Novela Rezha continues to be the benchmark for women’s padel in Indonesia — and increasingly, across the wider Asia Pacific region. As Indonesia’s current Nº1 female player, Novela is not content competing only at home. She is taking on the international FIP circuit, putting Indonesian padel firmly on the world map.

In recent weeks, Novela has competed at the FIP Bronze Hong Kong and FIP Bronze Singapore, facing top-level opposition from Europe and beyond. At the Singapore event, she reached the semi-finals as a top seed alongside her partner Alba Perez, before falling to the eventual champions. That kind of performance — going deep at a global FIP event as top seeds — is a testament to how far Novela has come and how seriously the international circuit is taking Indonesian padel.

Indonesia is one of the fastest-growing padel markets in the world, and Novela is its most visible ambassador. Every time she steps on court at a FIP or APPT event, she is not just playing for herself — she is representing an entire generation of Indonesian players who are watching, learning, and being inspired.

Since joining PANORAMIC, Novela’s exposure to international competition has accelerated. We are proud to be part of her journey — and we are convinced the best is still ahead.

Three players. Three different paths. One common goal — pushing padel forward in Asia Pacific at every level, on every circuit, in every country.

Whether it is Edu dominating the APPT as Nº1, Pol taking on the global FIP, or Novela flying the Indonesian flag against the world’s best — our PANORAMIC players are out there, every week, making us proud.
