Supplying its shoes and balls since 2021, the French brand Babolat has become the official provider of racquets for the APT Padel Tour. The racquets in question are of the Viper line, whose Air Viper model was Padel Spain’s racquet of the year in 2021. That same year APT Padel Tour held tournaments in Mexico, Paraguay, Belgium, Portugal, Sweden, Monaco, Spain and Argentina. This year it will be adding South Africa, Austria, Italy, the U.S. and Dubai. Most tournaments will be two weeks long, with a junior division and three divisions for men and women: Future, Open and Master.
