“Unique opportunity”

De Weerdt, Belgian champion in 2023, is already extremely motivated: “Last year we were there as spectators and this year we will be there as players, so the dream is coming true! I am very proud and very happy that I have just signed with the number 1 brand in the world, Bullpadel, and I have found my happiness with my new racket.”

Wyckaert, the best Belgian padel player, is also grateful to the organization for this opportunity. “It is a great experience to play at this beautiful location, the Gare Maritime at Tour&Taxis. We will do everything we can to achieve a great performance and thank the organization for this unique opportunity.”

“Making padel history in Belgium”

Vincent Laureyssens, Executive Chairman of the Lotto Brussels Premier Padel, is once again hoping for a large turnout: “Last year we broke a world record for a Wednesday during the Belgian Day Wednesday with our Belgian wildcards. We hope to surpass that world record this year with more than 8,000 visitors on the day. Come on Belgium, the more supporters there are and the better the atmosphere, the greater the chance that we will achieve another record and write padel history in Belgium.”
