Born on 25 March 1996 in Juan José Castelli, in Argentina’s Chaco province, Franco Stupaczuk grew up in a family that was already playing padel before he was born. At 8 he won the Argentine under-12 championship, and by 16 he was the number 1 in his country. After moving to Spain, he was named Breakthrough Player of the Year by the World Padel Tour in 2016. Since then, “Stupa” has established himself among the elite, playing on the left side. His game is dynamic: he covers a lot of ground and finishes points well at the net. He has been with Siux since 2022 and has renewed with the brand until 2029. His current racket is the Siux Electra Pro 2026: teardrop shape, 12K carbon faces and a high-density EVA core.
