Argentinian duo Juan Ignacio de Pascual and Ramiro Pereyra have claimed the A1 Padel France Grand Master title after 10 days of intense competition in Beausoleil. The event’s organisers have since confirmed that a new tournament is set to take place in Monaco’s Port Hercule this summer.
The A1 Padel France 2025 Grand Master came to a close this past weekend after 10 days of competition at Tennis Padel Soleil in Beausoleil. The event marked the first time that a French stage of the professional tour has hosted a Grand Master, the top category in the A1 Padel tournament calendar.
Argentinian duo Juan Ignacio de Pascual and Ramiro Pereyra won the title, living up to their No.2 seed status after the early exits of several of the tour’s top-ranked pairs.
“This is an absolute success on all levels,” said Fabrice Pastor, President and Founder of A1 Padel. “The sporting results had a significant impact on the rankings, reinforcing the crucial importance of this tournament on the circuit this season. The rise of new players against the favourites made the event particularly open and captivating, with six of the top-seeded pairs being eliminated early on.”
The Grand Master attracted consistent crowds across the 10 days of play, with increased attendance for the quarter-finals, semi-finals, and final. Matches were played on the central court at Tennis Padel Soleil, which features a permanent stadium and grandstands.

“Tennis Padel Soleil stands as a model for France,” added Pastor. “Its high-quality infrastructure… provided optimal conditions for players, as we clearly witnessed. The outstanding work of the club’s director, Cristina Pastor, and her team has paid off, making this tournament truly exceptional.”
The A1 Padel Tour, which has visited 36 countries to date, is now set to continue its global expansion. A new Grand Master is scheduled to take place in Monaco this summer, with three temporary courts due to be installed on Port Hercule. The event will be held under the High Patronage of Prince Albert II between 18th and 27th July.
Further details are expected to be released in the coming weeks.
