The United States and Europe’s much-anticipated FIP Intercontinental Cup match has been formally rescheduled for 2026. Due to an abnormally full sporting calendar in the next summer, the event, which was originally scheduled to take place in London in July 2025, has been postponed.
The international padel community was already buzzing about this transatlantic duel, which was supposed to bring together some of the best players from both continents. When two of the sport’s biggest names faced up, fans were excited to see the strategic battles and ferocious energy that would be expected.
The decision was made, according to the organizers, to guarantee that the event gets the consideration and planning it merits. In addition to providing breathing room in an overbooked year, the 2026 date change also sets the stage for an even more polished and exciting tournament when it finally takes place in London.
While disappointment persists for the time being, excitement is expected to grow even more over the course of the upcoming year, laying the groundwork for a memorable matchup when the Cup eventually makes a comeback to the public eye.
