Episode Details

Rosie Quirk is only 16, and she's already one of the most promising faces in British padel: her journey from tennis to a call-up to the senior national team has been incredibly fast. Frankie Langan, on the other hand, has been living and breathing padel since he was 7, growing up on the courts of southern Spain before turning professional, stepping away, and then coming back to help build the future of the sport, on and off the court.

In this episode of Campus Talks, Rosie and Frankie share two different journeys connected by the same passion: the early defeats at international tournaments that teach you to grow, the secret to handling pressure without freezing up, which Frankie sums up in one line: "Play like it means nothing when it means everything", the trust between partners, and the Olympic dream. A journey into a sport that's booming, from training in Spain to the new generations stepping up, and the importance of getting noticed off the court too, sharing your story and your passion on social media.

Settle in, let's dive in.
