Little by little, Diego Schwartzman begins to settle down once more on the world circuit. El Peque will return to the Top 100 of the ATP ranking following defeating American Mackenzie McDonald 6-2, 6-4 in the first round of the Queen’s tournament.
Schwartzman, who was ranked among the top 10 tennis players in the world in 2020, fell out of the top 100 in the world for the first time in nine years following falling in the third round of Roland Garros 2023. The Argentine is trying to overcome the nightmare season he is dragging in which he has barely won three games since mid-April. In all of 2023 he won eight victories.
However, on grass, the worst surface for his game, Schwartzman was able to defeat a much more rounded rival like McDonald, who had just played a Challenger on grass in Surbiton and reached the quarterfinals in Hertogenbosch.
El Peque had an immaculate match, in which he only made five unforced errors and did not concede a single break point, Schwartzman achieved the third victory of his career at Queen’s, where he reached the quarterfinals in the 2019 edition.
The Argentine will have a tough second round, once morest Scotsman Andy Murray, five-time champion at the London club, or once morest Australian Alex de Miñaur, who has a title on this surface, a couple of semifinals and a round of 16 at Wimbledon.
