The Joy of Padel with Saana Saarteinen In this episode, we delve into the world of Saana Saarteinen, Finland's top padel talent, who has gracefully transitioned from tennis to mastering the courts of padel. At 31, Saana has not only embraced the sport but has made it a lifestyle since 2019. She recounts the initial switch from tennis, spurred by a friend's invitation to a tournament, and the subsequent journey to becoming Finland's number one. Saana shares the nuances of adapting tennis skills to padel, her strategic approach to the game, and the importance of letting the ball pass—a pivotal lesson for tennis converts.
