Why Do Rankings and Earnings Differ?
FIP rankings use a points system weighted by tournament tier (Major > P1 > P2 > FIP). Points from older results drop off after 52 weeks on a rolling basis. This rewards consistency — a pair that reaches the quarter-finals everywhere climbs steadily.
Prize money rankings count the euros banked in the current calendar year. Nothing decays, and nothing is weighted: a single Major title is worth more than a season of early exits. That rewards peak performance at the events with the largest pools.
The result is that the two lists rarely line up exactly, and the gap between them is the most interesting thing on this page — it shows who is converting deep runs into real money, and who is quietly accumulating points without the payday to match.

How this page stays current
Nothing on this page is typed by hand. The standings, titles, calendar, headline and answers above are all derived from our tournament database, which is synced from the Padel API and the FIP draw feed several times a day — and every few hours while an event is live. Pairs are reconstructed from the prize money each player banked at each event, so a mid-season partner change shows up automatically. The page rebuilds every 5 minutes.
