Arturo Coello and Agustín Tapia won the Kuwait Major on Saturday, beating Juan Tello and Maxi Arce 6-1 6-1 in the final. It's their 13th title of 2026, their fifth in a row and their 23rd straight match win.
It also settles the men's season. The title makes them mathematically year-end No. 1 in both the FIP Ranking and the Race, for the fourth year running. All week, they gave up 17 games in five matches.
Tello and Arce deserve a line of their own. It was their first final together, Tello's first since Paris 2022 and Arce's first in Premier Padel. A week earlier they had lost the FIP Gold final in Melilla.
Our read: the men's tour has three events left and nothing at the top to play for. The fight now is for the last places in Barcelona.
The women's final was the better story. Delfi Brea and Gemma Triay lost the first set to Ari Sánchez and Andrea Ustero, then won 12 of the last 14 games for a 3-6 6-1 6-1 win.
That's Triay's 59th career title. She came to Kuwait level with Sánchez and Ale Salazar on 58, and broke the tie by beating Sánchez in the final. It is Brea/Triay's seventh title of 2026 and their first final since Madrid.
Unlike the men's, the women's year-end No. 1 is still open. Brea/Triay lead the Race by 2,780 points, with 4,500 still to play for. Dubai, Acapulco and Barcelona will decide it.
