This is the official Annual Power Rankings page — designed to be updated each season to reflect the true performance level of the top male and female padel players.
Unlike static rankings, Power Rankings evaluate:
- Current form
- Big-match performance
- Partnership chemistry
- Style matchups
- Indoor vs outdoor strength
- Consistency across tournaments
These rankings help readers, analysts, and bettors understand which players are actually performing at elite levels right now.
🟦 How Power Rankings Are Determined
The ranking algorithm considers:
- Tournament results (weight adjusted by tier)
- Win/loss record vs Top 10 pairs
- Indoor vs outdoor performance split
- Smash efficiency (left-side players)
- Defensive stability (right-side players)
- Clutch performance (Golden Points)
- Partnership synergy score
- Consistency across surfaces
This produces a true performance rating, not just a points-based ranking.
