Ranking in context
Ranked #91, Aimee primarily competes on the Cupra FIP Gold circuit — the second tier of international padel — with Premier Padel qualifying as a reachable next step.
The FIP world ranking is calculated on a rolling 52-week basis. Points are earned at Premier Padel events (Majors, P1, P2) and Cupra FIP Tour events (FIP Gold, FIP Silver), with larger events awarding proportionally more points. Rankings are updated every Monday.
The Cupra FIP Tour is the second tier of international padel — the primary development pathway from national competition into the Premier Padel circuit. FIP Silver events are open-category, meaning both professionals and high-level amateurs can enter qualification, making them highly competitive.
Technical profile
Drive-side players occupy the right-hand side of the court (for right-handed players) and are typically responsible for deep defence, cross-court play, and initiating attacks off the back glass. Height is a significant advantage on the drive side — tall players can reach high balls that would bounce past shorter opponents.
On the drive side, Aimee's role in a partnership involves controlling the diagonal, defending the lob, and setting up attacking sequences for the left-side partner.
At 160cm, Aimee is at a height where speed and technical precision often compensate — many elite padel players use quick footwork and sharp angles rather than height as their primary weapon.
British padel
Great Britain is the world's fastest-growing padel market. The LTA (Lawn Tennis Association) has invested heavily in court development since 2022, with padel now offered at hundreds of tennis clubs nationwide. British players are reaching the international circuit for the first time, and Aimee is part of that wave — competing internationally while padel infrastructure in the UK grows around them.
The LTA (Lawn Tennis Association) oversees professional padel development in Great Britain. The UK now has over 2,400 courts and the sport is growing at over 50% year-on-year. British players competing internationally are a landmark moment for UK padel.
