Triay and Brea: The Pair to Beat in Women's Padel
After dominating the 2025 rankings, Gemma Triay and Delfi Brea enter 2026 as the undisputed world number one women's pair.
Gemma Triay and Delfi Brea enter the 2026 season as the dominant force in women's padel, and their early-season form suggests they have no intention of slowing down.
The Spanish-Argentine pair, who finished 2025 as the clear world number ones, have been virtually untouchable since forming their partnership. Triay's defensive mastery combined with Brea's aggressive net play creates a combination that no other pair has consistently solved.
The biggest shake-up in women's padel comes from the split of Paula Josemaria and Ariana Sanchez, a partnership that had been the main rival to Triay/Brea. Both players are now seeking new partners, creating opportunities for emerging talents to break into the top tier.
