Same last season, constantly top player in match by contribution according to stats

It’s been clear for a few years that he could challenge Tapia / Galan if he can level up his defense and make a bit better decisions.
Decisions are maybe getting there, but to me his defense is still lacking

Yes they’re targeting him from the net , tbh if improves his defence this is one of the strongest team

He have anything more then heavy smash? Both Tapia and Galan have much more than better defense. They better in tactics, they use more options while playing, they better in control. Even if you think that Leo best in attack, compare his stats vs Galan and you will find that Ale is way more effective. Leo need to grow a lot, it’s not only problem in defense, it will take years.

He has very high highs and very low lows. He still lacks the consistency to challenge the top players for the top spots in the rankings

I agree with augsburger makin critical mistakes at points that shouldn't happen, probably is a pressure thing related to the fact that he is young and tend to take the wrong decision.
But Lebron despite being the best of the two obviously also made a few mistake that ended up with the ball being to easy for mostly Sanz sending it full power towards Leo. If I had to put Lebrons level today, I will say he is a top 4 above current chingotto, and below Galan's level. Tapia and Coello are on another level.

he kept on lobbing them and they kept hitting viboras to leo pressuring him further i believe

yes exactly, it is also one of those extremely well played games from Sanz and Coki, like that master final from 2025 again coello /tapia.
Leo and Lebron didnt played bad, they just took several wrong decisions and also didnt take a single break point and they had a bunch of chances

Doubt it. Augsburger plays incredibly well for a couple of tournaments esch year, but the rest of the year he struggles to almost make quarterfinals. He is way too inconsistent to be a top player, and has been for several years now. He needs to improve his defense and consistency to become a world class player.

For me the problem with Leo is his volleys, like he goes very soft on that shot which makes his team to loose advantage. Also on volley choke he is pretty weak compared to other top players

I'm reserving judgment on them until at least the Qatar Major ([if it even goes ahead](https://www.padelvoz.com/premier-padel/qatar-major-postponed-iran-conflict-69913/)). They were unbelievable in Riyadh, the semifinal against Coello and Tapia was the highest level game of the tournament.
Sanz was immense today, same with Coki considering he's coming back from injury, so credit where credit is due.
Lebrón and Augsburger just seemed to keep giving Sanz mid-lobs so he could rip a powerful vibora the Augsburger's forehand block volley, not the wisest strategy today from the duo.

Lebron hasn't won anything in 2 years except when top players avoided a tournament. Augsburger has won a P1 last year beating all the top players and beat the top players several times. This is not 2020 anymore. Lebron is good but he can't claim to be playing at #1 level.

i think he can or atleast top 3 for properly, augsburger was sloppy af today, last month they took the fight to tapia and coello

He tries with new partners and every time he barely makes semi finals. For the most part.
