B Padel: Playing With the World’s Best & The Problem With Playtomic Ratings
We’re joined by Brendan, better known as B Padel, to talk about his journey from professional basketball player to padel addict and content creator.
Brendan shares what it’s been like playing and working with some of the best players in the world, including Mike Yanguas, Alejandra Salazar and Coki Nieto, and how B Padel has grown since launching in 2025.
We also get into Playtomic ratings, why Brendan thinks player levels in the UK have become inflated, and the problem with relying on self-rating in padel.
