Agustin Tapia renews relationship with NOX until 2028
He arrived in Spain in 2017 when he was just 17 years old with NOX to train with Pablo Crosetti, current Sports Coordinator of the Nox Future Academy (NFA). A young man with a talent out of the ordinary that over the years went from being nicknamed 'El Pollito' to be known by all as 'El Mozart de Catamarca', a nickname earned by doing impossible in every match and against any opponent. For us it has been a privilege to have accompanied him from his beginnings in professionalism until his rise to number 1 in the world ranking of padel, a milestone achieved through hard work and dedication.
We all remember the final of the WPT Vigo Open 2023 that led him to lead the world circuit for the first time, a feat he would repeat later that year in Mexico to close the season as number 1. A dream 2023 that closed with no less than eleven titles.
Whoever thought that the good streak ended with the end of the season was wrong. The first quarter of Premier Padel has concluded with three tournaments in his pocket, including the Qatar Major, and a final. A start to the season that makes it clear that Agustin has worked very hard in the preseason to arrive in the best possible shape. A physique that perfectly complements the talent to which we are already more than used to.
"Agustín Tapia is not only the key piece of Team NOX, but he also played a fundamental role in the creation of the NFA, being the one who laid the first stone of this training project for athletes. His commitment to the development of padel and his ability to inspire the young promises that join Team NOX make him a true reference for everyone. We are very proud to have Agustín as part of our family and we hope to continue reaching new horizons together in the years to come", shared Jesús Ballvé, General Manager of NOX, about the renewal of Mozart de Catamarca.
"This renewal is a new challenge for me in my professional career. NOX has always been with me and I consider them part of my family, supporting me in the good times and in the not so good times. I only have words of thanks for the brand and for Jesús Ballvé. I am convinced that many successes await us, both on a sporting level and in the growth and development of the brand. Of course, for my part I will continue to give my all to take NOX to the top of the world padel" said Agustín Tapia.
