Diego Schwartzman is only 5 ft 7 inches tall and is the shortest player in the ATP top 100. But the Argentine has been able to climb up the ranking with a crafty play that lets him keep up with players that are a foot taller than him. Schwartzman’s strength is his impressive return game.

Schwartzman was baptized in honor of the famous Argentine soccer player Diego Maradona. He grew up idolizing countrymen, Juan Monaco and Maximo Gonzalez.  He is also a big fan of Rafael Nadal. That’s not a surprise, considering that his favorite surface is clay. 

At the 2020 French Open, he reached the semifinals, becoming the shortest player to achieve that feat since 1980. He has reached the quarterfinals at grand slams multiple times.

His sponsors are Fila, Head, Voltaren, Peugeot, Disney+, Caviahue Creams, and High Impact Athletes. He has earned over $15 million in his career.
