Delfi Brea: "There is a lot of friction in tense situations, things happen in matches and you have to talk afterwards"

Delfi Brea and Gemma Triay are currently navigating the 2026 season while maintaining the top ranking they secured last year. To manage the intense pressure of professional padel, the duo utilizes a shared psychologist to help navigate the friction that naturally arises during high-stakes matches.

Brea noted that they prioritize open communication and specific verbal cues to maintain team cohesion, while also ensuring they spend some time apart outside of training to balance their professional relationship. As they lead the rankings under coach Seba Nerone, they remain focused on the competition from Ari Sanchez and Andrea Ustero as the season reaches its final stages.
