The 2023 WPT Paraguay Open (officially 2023 WPT Paraguay Padel Open 1000) was the fourth tournament of the eleventh edition of World Padel Tour. The final phase was played between March 21 and 26, 2023 at the facilities of SND Arena in Asunción, while the preliminary phase was played between March 3 and 5 at the "Euroindoor" of Madrid, Spain.
In the women's category, Alejandra Salazar and Gemma Triay secured their third title of the year against their competitors for number 1, Ariana Sánchez and Paula Josemaría, in a very close match that ended up being decided by the tie-breaks of the first two sets; 7–6 and 7–6.
In the men's category, Agustín Tapia and Arturo Coello maintained their winning streak this year (4 tournaments out of 4), defeating the "Superpibes", Franco Stupaczuk and Martín Di Nenno, in a match where they imposed a high pace of play that the Argentinians could not follow; 6–2 and 6–1.
Relevant data First time in Paraguay Like the previous tournament in Chile, this tournament marked the first time the World Padel Tour had held a tournament in Paraguay. Wildcards were awarded to Arianna Stagni and Verónica Cepede in the women's draw and to Fernando Lavall and Nahuel Fernández in the men's.
Controversy withdrawals In the third and final tournament of the WPT's American tour, there were, once again, numerous withdrawals and injuries after the main draw had already been released, forcing the WPT to make changes just days before the start. A total of 10 pairs did not compete in the tournament for various reasons. Of these 10 open spots in the main draw, 5 were awarded by lottery to pairs who had lost in the qualifying rounds ("lucky losers"), and the remaining 5 were filled by the top 5 seeds, who advanced directly to the round of 16.
