The promoters of padel in India could not have found a better sports personality than former All England champion P. Gopichand to join the Indian Padel Federation in their promotional activities to give the sport a fresh fillip and make it more popular across the country.
Padel is relatively new to India and is said to combine the best elements of tennis and squash and nicknamed as ‘tennis with walls’ and ‘squash in the Sun’.
Supriya Devgun, former bronze medallist at the 2017 BWF World Senior Badminton Championship, also joins the Indian Padel Federation as a key Board Member.
