Sanyo and Maxi accelerate in the 'Race of Champions'

Sunday, May 12, 2019, final of the Vigo Open 2019. Sanyo Gutiérrez and Maxi Sánchez win in the final of the tournament Paquito Navarro and Juan Lebrón by 6-3 and 6-4. It was the third title of a couple, who had started the season by imposing their domain to the front of the ranking. However, the couple from San Luis, would enter into a competitive downturn, which would take them from the finals until the Estrella Damm Madrid Master 2019, and from the titles, until the one achieved in Menorca. 5 months in which the Argentine duo has gone through almost all the moods that the doubts cause. A hard transit of five months to recover his identity and with it, his best version in the 20x10.

Thanks to this competitive rebirth, the duo is placed with a total of 8,300 points obtained in this year. Only 290 points less than Paquito Navarro and Juan Lebrón, (8,590), and surpassing by 42 points the total obtained individually by Ale Galán, who with 4 titles under his credit, reaches 8,258 throughout this season. The fourth in this race is Pablo Lima, who with two less contested tournaments, adds 3 and a total of 7,500 points at the individual level.

A triumph that makes the current leaders of the world rankings take new momentum, in a final stretch of the course so close that it is unprecedented in the recent history of the professional men's padel.
