Key Players

The Caribbean setting and passionate Mexican crowd added an extra dimension. Here were the top contenders — and how the draw ultimately unfolded.

Men's Draw

Agustín Tapia/ Arturo Coello · Seed (1)

The top seeds and favourites. Tapia's shot-making creativity paired with Coello's relentless intensity — a combination that has dominated the 2026 circuit.

Alejandro Galán/ Federico Chingotto · Seed (2)

The experienced Argentine-Spanish pair brings tactical intelligence and world-class consistency. Galán's all-court game makes them dangerous on any surface.

Juan Lebrón/ Leandro Augsburger · Seed (4)

The 2025 Cancún champion Lebrón returns to defend. His devastating smashes and aggressive net play suit the warm outdoor conditions perfectly.

Women's Draw

Paula Josemaría/ Ariana Sánchez · Seed (1)

The top women's seeds. Josemaría's all-court excellence combined with Sánchez's consistency makes them the pair to beat at every P2 event.

Gemma Triay/ Delfina Brea · Seed (2)

The 2025 Cancún champions return as second seeds. Triay's composure and Brea's powerful Argentine game make them dangerous title contenders.

Tax on Prize Money in Mexico: 25% Withholding

Mexico applies a 25% withholding tax on prize money earned by non-resident athletes. This means a P2 winner taking home €15,000 in prize money will have €3,750 withheld by Mexican tax authorities, netting just €11,250.

Tournament Overview

Premier Padel Cancún P2 2026 takes place March 16–22 at the Rafa Nadal Tennis Center in Costa Mujeres, Mexico, with a €264,534 prize pool. The second edition is shaping up to be everything the first should have been.

The 2025 Boycott & What's Different in 2026

The inaugural Cancún P2 in March 2025 was marred by a boycott from many of the world's top players. Stars like Coello, Tapia, and Galán were absent from the draw, leaving the door open for Franco Stupaczuk and Juan Lebrón to claim the men's title and Gemma Triay and Delfina Brea to win the women's event. In 2026, the world's best are expected to return to Cancún, making this a much stronger and more competitive tournament.

What is a P2 Tournament?

The P2 designation represents the third tier of Premier Padel events, below Majors and P1 tournaments. P2 events are still highly competitive and feature:

  • Strong main draws — 28 men's pairs and 24 women's pairs
  • Qualifying rounds offering opportunities for emerging talent
  • Valuable FIP ranking points for world rankings

Tournament Result: Galán & Chingotto Exit in the Quarterfinals

Men's QF — Cancún P2 2026

Seeds #2 Knocked Out at the Quarter-Final Stage

Alejandro Galán and Federico Chingotto, the second seeds and one of the most decorated pairs in the draw, were eliminated in the quarterfinals by a lower-ranked pair — one of the bigger upsets of the 2026 season so far. The Argentine-Spanish combination failed to convert their pre-tournament status into a deep run, exiting at exactly the stage that hurts most in terms of prize money.

They were not alone. Franco Stupaczuk — who lifted the 2025 Cancún trophy alongside Juan Lebrón, though under boycott conditions that left the draw wide open — also fell early with new partner Josemaría Yanguas, underlining just how unpredictable the 2026 draw turned out to be.

What a QF Exit Means in Euros

A quarterfinal exit at a P2 is not a disaster in isolation — but in the context of the 2026 earnings race, the numbers sting. Galán and Chingotto each earn €3,000 for their Cancún QF result. Had they won the title, that figure would be €15,000 per player — a €12,000 gap per player from a single tournament. Even reaching the final would have netted €8,250 each, still €5,250 more than a QF.

Mexico's 25% withholding tax compounds the picture: Galán and Chingotto net just €2,250 each after tax from Cancún, while the eventual winners pocket a net €11,250 per player. That's a real-world take-home difference of €9,000 per player — from the same week of work.

What This Means for the Tapia & Coello Earnings Battle

Cancún matters because 2026 is shaping up as the most competitive earnings race in years. The gap between Galán / Chingotto and the Tapia / Coello pairing at the top of the earnings table is measured in thousands, not hundreds of thousands. Every QF exit for one pair and a deep run for the other shifts the balance.

The maths over a full season is unforgiving: if Galán and Chingotto average QF exits (€3,000) at events where Tapia and Coello reach semis (€4,500) or finals (€8,250), the gap compounds fast across 20+ events. In padel prize money, the difference between consistent semi-finals and consistent quarter-finals is roughly €30,000–€60,000 per season per player — enough to dramatically reshape any earnings ranking.

The Cancún quarterfinal also demonstrates why the next events on the calendar — Miami P1 (€495k) and the Qatar Major (€1M) — are so pivotal. At a Major, the equivalent QF-to-winner gap explodes to €39,219 per player. Squandering those chances is the fastest way to fall behind in the 2026 earnings race.
