The Joy of Padel with Mike Yanguas
Mike Yanguas, who comes from Malaga, Spain, began playing padel when he was just 7 years old. Now 21, playing right, he's the 17th ranked player in the WPT. His partner for most of this year (and through the recording of this interview) has been the 44-year-old still-active doyen of padel, Fernando Belasteguin. Due to an injury to Bela's arm, Mike has for now teamed up with Victor Ruiz. On the WPT, he has a 68% win ratio. His best result this year was winning the Tau Cerámica Reus Costa Daurada Open 500, in Tarragona Spain. He has also reached 2 other semi-finals and 9 quarters. Enjoy this conversation with one of the stars of padel on the men's tour. VAMOS!
