Beach tennis tournaments in Brazil

Overview

Beach tennis events in Brazil have progressed from regional festivals to major international competitions. In late August, the Costa Oeste Beach Tennis Festival was held in Guaíra, attracting approximately 300 athletes, including players ranked in the global Top 20, with the goal of establishing Western Paraná as a sporting hub.

By late September, the focus shifted to the Pan-American Beach Tennis Championship held at CT Pantanal in Cuiabá. The tournament featured athletes from various nations, including Brazil, the United States, Puerto Rico, Argentina, Canada, and Chile.

Brazil demonstrated significant dominance at the 13th Pan-American Beach Tennis Championship, winning 14 out of 15 available titles. The Brazilian delegation secured a total of 43 medals across professional, mixed, and youth divisions, spanning from Under-12 to Under-18.

In the professional women’s category, ranking leaders Vitória Marchezini and Sophia Chow reclaimed their title by defeating Júlia Nogueira and Marcela Vita. Additional successes for the host nation included a mixed doubles victory by Vitória Marchezini and Giovanni Cariani, as well as an inaugural title for the men’s doubles team of Felipe Loch and Leonardo Branco.
