00:00 He's immensely popular. Paquito Navarro, they both are.
00:04 And he was getting them going last night, playing the guitar with the paddle racket.
00:09 They absolutely love that.
00:11 And what an occasion. But Arvind, they're going to have to be almost better than their best.
00:15 Yeah, absolutely. I think so.
00:17 And here come Arturo Cuello and Agustin Tapia.
00:24 And how about their season?
00:29 So strong. Rarely make mistakes, certainly not for long.
00:34 And they always seem to find a way to overpower their opponents.
00:39 They will take all of the beating here.
00:42 And they're in that...
00:43 Don't forget, it's a review per set and you have to ask quickly and clearly for the review.
00:48 OK.
00:48 All on your own for 22.
00:50 Thank you.
00:52 22?
00:57 Looks like it's Chingotto's choice.
00:59 Start as you mean to go on.
01:19 Yeah.
01:20 Just about as...
01:29 Dealing with them well.
01:30 So they hold.
01:37 [Ball bouncing]
01:52 Oh, didn't see that coming. Long from Paquito Navarro.
01:58 [Ball bouncing]
02:06 Yeah, it's well done by Paquito Navarro.
02:08 [Ball bouncing]
02:24 [Cheering]
02:25 They have the break.
02:26 [Applause]
02:27 And there's that.
02:28 [Ball bouncing]
02:35 Incredible reflexes from Tapia.
02:37 And it comes to nothing.
02:39 But anyway.
02:40 [Ball bouncing]
02:45 Yeah, they both went for that and into the...
02:47 [Ball bouncing]
02:56 The wingspan.
02:57 [Ball bouncing]
03:02 And then the power.
03:03 [Cheering]
03:05 Simple as that.
03:06 [Ball bouncing]
03:15 That's why they're so hard to beat.
03:17 [Ball bouncing]
03:23 [Ball bouncing]
03:43 Oh, Chingoto at his best there.
03:46 [Ball bouncing]
03:54 Bent the knees and hammered it away.
03:57 [Applause]
03:59 See how Navarro is stretching for it.
04:01 [Ball bouncing]
04:12 [Cheering]
04:14 That's enough.
04:15 [Applause]
04:17 And after 41 scintillating minutes of play...
04:21 ...from Navarro, but he got away with it.
04:23 [Ball bouncing]
04:32 And then wide from Chingoto.
04:34 [Applause]
04:35 And there is the...
04:36 [Ball bouncing]
04:45 Tapia exiting and somehow getting it back...
04:48 ...and Chingoto dumps it into the net.
04:51 What a chase.
04:53 [Ball bouncing]
05:01 And they hold.
05:02 [Applause]
05:03 Big hold there to show they're still in there.
05:05 [Ball bouncing]
05:19 That's a lovely touch.
05:20 [Ball bouncing]
05:40 Taquito knew the writing was on the wall there.
05:43 [Applause]
05:44 Should have left his body.
05:45 Yeah, it's gone flat.
05:46 [Ball bouncing]
06:11 They've gone flat.
06:14 And it looks rather ominous now.
06:16 [Ball bouncing]
06:18 It's another break point.
06:20 [Ball bouncing]
06:22 And it's into the net.
06:23 And I'm afraid...
06:24 ...today.
06:25 [Ball bouncing]
06:27 Just keep that energy.
06:28 [Ball bouncing]
06:30 Maybe it's leaving them and Tapia punches the air.
06:33 [Applause]
06:35 He's saved two match points, but now here's another.
06:37 [Ball bouncing]
06:44 And it's long.
06:45 [Applause]
06:46 And once again, the day belongs to Cuello and Tapia.
06:52 [Applause]
06:53 What a pair they are.
06:55 [Applause]
06:56 Tight first set, but they get the better of Chingotto and Navarro yet again in a final.
07:04 They are the kings of Paris.
07:08 That's a phenomenal effort.
07:10 Ran away with things slightly in that second set, but they were pushed in that first set.
07:14 Came from a breakdown, showed their class to get back into it and simply played a better tie-break in the end.
07:23 They really have made winning a habit.
07:27 Premier Padel have treated them very, very well this year.
07:33 They are mopping up.
07:37 Saving their very best for the biggest events.
07:43 And it is interesting because they do have little slips along the way, but goodness me, when it comes to these showpieces, these finals, it's so hard to get anywhere near them.
07:58 I lived with them for a set, but they maintained a very high level.
08:03 I think the belief levels early on in the second set were very high.
08:06 [Foreign language]
08:13 So here come the winners.
08:16 The very best.
08:18 [Foreign language]
08:21 The world number one for Wales and Tapia.
08:24 [Music]
08:36 Splendid trophy there.
08:38 [Music]
08:47 There are the winners, richly deserved.
08:51 [Foreign language]
09:05 Give them a chance to say something now.
09:08 [Music]
09:12 Truly up.
09:20 There are your winners.
09:22 And of course, they're used to this now.
09:24 Paquito and Chingotto, they move out of the way.
09:26 They know what's coming next.
09:29 Because here's the moment.
09:31 [Foreign language]
09:33 The champions of Paris.
