Diego Schwartzman’s fiancée, Eugenia De Martino, penned an emotional message after the Argentine tennis star bid farewell to the sport. Schwartzman made his final appearance at the 2025 Argentina Open, where he played his last professional match in front of his home crowd. His campaign began with a hard-fought win over seventh-seed Nicolas Jarry, but his run was cut short by a second-round loss to Pedro Martinez.
After the match, De Martino took to social media to reflect on her fiancé’s retirement week. She shared a few pictures from watching the match at the Buenos Aires Lawn Tennis Club and wrote, “A week that I will never forget again. I love you with all my heart @dieschwartzman.” The couple got engaged in April 2024 and shared the news on social media two months later.
Schwartzman, who announced his retirement last year, cited his body’s exhausting condition as the reason for his decision. Despite the challenges, he expressed satisfaction with his career, saying, “I achieved much more than I ever dreamed of.” Schwartzman retires with four ATP titles, including the 2021 Argentina Open, and a notable performance at the 2020 French Open, where he reached the semifinals.
The Argentina Open marked Schwartzman’s only appearance on the Tour this year, with his previous campaign being the 2024 US Open. He entered the New York Major main draw via qualifiers but suffered a first-round defeat to Gael Monfils. Schwartzman also played a Challenger tournament in Rosario, where he lost to compatriot Camilo Ugo Carabelli in the first round.
Schwartzman’s career was marked by his determination to overcome his physical limitations. Despite being told he would never grow taller than 5′ 7″, he proved his doubters wrong time and again. His discipline, passion, and ability to compete earned him a place among the top players in the world. He will be remembered for his achievements and for setting the bar for those looking to push themselves past their personal limitations.
As Schwartzman bids farewell to tennis, his fans and loved ones, including De Martino, celebrate his remarkable career and the legacy he leaves behind.
