Mónica Montes and Adrián Illescas are joining the MARCA Pádel project, led by Jesús Mata and Alberto Bote. A newspaper writer since 2016, Mata is its editorial coordinator. Bote, a journalist with more than 15 years in the sector, coordinates editorial and digital strategy as well as product development.
The arrival of two new journalistic voices comes as MARCA Pádel expands. The outlet presents the appointments as a sign of the newspaper’s ambition and commitment to a fast-growing sport.
Montes, known as “La Víbora del pádel,” is described as a voice for women’s padel around the world. Adrián Illescas, known as “La Casa del Pádel,” has spent several years covering the professional circuit around the world and has established himself as a leading content creator in the sport.
They join, among others, Rodrigo Vázquez, a journalist and padel content creator for MARCA since 2024. He is now responsible for the project’s social media development and audiovisual content.
