Premier Padel 2022 was the 1st edition of the Premier Padel circuit, promoted by the International Padel Federation, and with the financial backing of Nasser Al-Khelaïfi.[1]
From the start of the competition, there were conflicts between the World Padel Tour and the top circuit players, as they also wanted to play in the Premier Padel. This led the WPT to file a lawsuit against the top 20 ranked players, arguing that they could only compete exclusivelly in their tournaments.[2][3] Ultimately, despite the lawsuit, the players decided to compete in the first tournament, with the World Padel Tour's number 2 ranked team, Paquito Navarro and Martín Di Nenno, emerging victorious in the final.[4]
The first edition of Premier Padel ended with Alejandro Galán and Juan Lebrón as number 1 ranked pair, having won 4 of the 8 tournaments.[5]
