Paula & Robert Walters's story, a natural alliance

Paula Josemaría is not just one of the best padel players in the world, but a global champion of passion, perseverance, and dedication.

From her beginnings at the age of 8, her path has been marked by an unwavering commitment to the sport that saw her grow. Her natural talent has been amplified by a relentless work ethic, a constant pursuit of improvement, and an admirable resilience in the face of obstacles.

More than just a sport, padel is the passion that runs through Paula's veins. Her dedication is absolute, from the hours spent training to the meticulous care of her body and mind. In every match, she gives her all, leaving her mark with her power and explosiveness on the drive. Her competitive spirit and hunger for victory are contagious, inspiring those around her.

Paula, much more than a padel player

Graduated in Biochemistry and a Master of Education (M.Ed.), Paula began competing as a professional paddle player ​9 years ago (16 World Padel Tour tournaments, 2 World Cups, and currently ranked number 1 in the world).​

Paula's determination and commitment from a very young age is evident in her sporting development, which has taken her to world number one:

  • 2016 - She begins to stand out in the world of paddle tennis, proclaiming herself Champion of Extremadura, her native land.​
  • 2019 - She is crowned Champion of Spain, Europe and WPT revelation player, circuit in which she obtained her first victory.​
  • 2021 – Forms a pair with her current partner Ariana Sánchez and together they conquer 5 more tests.​
  • 2022 - Playing 18 finals in one season, a staggering record that no other male or female pairing had achieved before.​
  • 2023 - Season opens with the sponsorship of the Robert Walters Group and winning the Abu Dhabi Master.
  • 2024 - Paula opens the Premier Padel season winning the first two tournaments.

 

Paula & Robert Walters's story, a natural alliance

The partnership between Paula Josemaría and Robert Walters, the Global Champion for Talent, is no coincidence.

The company recognizes in Paula the embodiment of its values: passion, integrity, excellence, and leadership. Her fighting spirit, commitment, and ability to inspire others make her a perfect example of Robert Walters' philosophy.​

At only 26 years old, Paula Josemaría still has a long way to go. Her goal is to continue achieving success in professional padel, solidifying her position as one of the best in the world. But her ambitions go beyond: she wants to inspire new generations of women to pursue their dreams, demonstrating that there are no limits to talent and determination.

Her story is a source of inspiration for everyone who aspires to reach the top in their chosen field. Robert Walters is proud to support this exceptional athlete on her journey to an even brighter future.
