Although the Alpine Hexagon Cup in Madrid has always been an event to watch, the celebrity padel competition this year elevated the atmosphere to a whole new level. Hollywood actress Eva Longoria, Formula 1 racer Pierre Gasly, and football legend Sergio Aguero competed on the padel courts during the event.

Celebrities and top padel players get together for the Alpine Hexagon Cup, a unique team competition. Eight franchises, each headed by well-known figures, took part this year. Together with Lionel Messi, Aguero co-founded the Kr Padel by Taktika franchise. He and Gabriel PK took on some of the top players in the sport. Longoria led her ElevenEleven squad with Dani Homedes, while Gasly, co-owner of the 10Padel team, teamed up with Loc Fery.

Celebrities and professional athletes participated together in an Alpine Pro-Am match to start the competition. It was an exciting match between Aguero and Andriy Shevchenko, another legendary striker. Longoria and Gasly also displayed their talents, which increased the event’s excitement.

Top-ranked players including Paula Josemaria, Arturo Coello, and Agustin Tapia competed in the intense competition. Before the finals on Sunday, each team’s pairings competed in a round-robin format over the course of the four-day event.
