Prins / De Kroon

Dutch fans call Prins / De Kroon 'KroonPrins', a play on the surnames De Kroon and Prins, since the pair moved into padel from tennis backgrounds. They added a national title to that switch, beating the defending champions, and have since reached a final against Belmont / Figuerola as they push up the world rankings.

Quarter by quarter gap to expectation, in points

A bar is the gap that quarter; a grey stub means too few matches to judge; the dashed bar is the current quarter so far.

The expectation uses each player’s own rating before every match, from all their partnerships — so the gap is what this pairing adds or costs. Includes qualifying. How ELO works
