Rotterdam P2 2026 Results: Coello & Tapia Make It Three Straight, Sánchez & Ustero Repeat Too
Rotterdam P2 2026 Results: Coello & Tapia Make It Three Straight, Sánchez & Ustero Repeat Too
Rotterdam P2 2026 wrapped up on Sunday with both top seeds doing exactly what the draw expected — but the women's final had a milestone worth stopping for, and the men's final had a timeout that decided it. Here's what actually happened on court, and the gear behind both wins.
Men's final: Coello & Tapia make it three Rotterdams in a row
Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia beat Franco Stupaczuk and Jon Sanz 6-3, 6-2 to retain their Rotterdam title for a third straight year — their 52nd title together as a pair, which tells you most of what you need to know about where this partnership sits in the game right now. It wasn't one-way traffic throughout: Stupaczuk and Sanz opened well and had the world No.1s under some pressure early in the first set. The turning point was a timeout — Coello talked to Tapia mid-set, and from that point the match tilted hard in their favor. Once Coello and Tapia settled, the gap in class showed up in both sets, 6-3 then 6-2, with Stupaczuk and Sanz never finding a way back in.
Tapia's racket is the NOX AT10 Genius Attack 12K Alum 2026 — the diamond-shaped, head-heavy attacking build NOX developed specifically with him, distinct from the 18K Alum line we carry for club players who want the look without the full power ceiling. Coello plays the HEAD Coello Pro; worth flagging honestly, our stocked unit is HEAD's own 2025-season build, while HEAD has since released a separate "Arturo Coello Pro 2026" edition carrying his name directly — so if you want the exact racket he lifted the trophy with this week, this isn't quite it, though the 2025 Pro remains the closest HEAD model we stock to his game.
On the other side of the net, Stupaczuk's racket is in stock too: the SIUX Electra Pro 2026 Shadow Red, a hybrid, even-balance frame co-developed with him for players who want one racket that covers both attack and defense. Jon Sanz plays a Drop Shot model we don't currently carry — message us on WhatsApp with your level and we'll point you to the closest fit in our range.
Women's final: Sánchez & Ustero go back-to-back in Rotterdam, and Ari hits a milestone
Ariana Sánchez and Andrea Ustero beat Paula Josemaría and Beatriz González 6-4, 6-4 for their second consecutive Rotterdam title and fourth title together as a pair. The bigger story is the number behind it: this was Ari Sánchez's 100th career final — a genuinely rare milestone in the women's game, and one that puts into context just how long she's been at the top before this partnership even started. Ustero, still only 19 and partnered with Sánchez for less than a year, was the standout performer on the day, controlling the pace of both sets and playing with a composure that doesn't usually show up this early in a partnership. Eight months into playing together, the pair is now winning finals at a rate that puts them level with anyone on tour.
Sánchez's racket is the Adidas Arrow Hit Pro EDT 2026 — a limited-edition diamond-shaped frame built with her directly, pairing an attacking shape with an even balance so it doesn't punish her the way a pure head-heavy diamond would. It's in stock now. Ustero and Josemaría's HEAD and González's Bullpadel signature models aren't currently in our range — if you play a similar game to either of them, tell us on WhatsApp and we'll find you the closest honest match rather than force a link that isn't there.
What it means heading into Dubai
Both No.1 pairs now arrive at Dubai P1, 9–15 November, in the form you'd expect — Coello and Tapia extending a run that's now at 52 titles together, and Sánchez and Ustero playing like a pairing with nothing left to prove after eight months. For UAE players, that's the sharpest version of both games you'll get to watch in person this year, and a good reason to see these exact rackets up close before you buy rather than just trusting a spec sheet.
Not sure which of these rackets actually fits your level rather than theirs? Send us your game on WhatsApp and we'll give you a straight answer, not a sales pitch.
Play it Bueno.
