Without finding the direction and it seems that the panorama does not change. And the trend continues to be negative, since Diego Schwartzman (117th) suffered defeat againthis time in the first round of the Indian Wells Masters 1000 qualifying: it was against the Japanese Shintaro Mochizuki (117th) 6-4 and 6-3 in 1h31m.
El Peque said goodbye to the contest and could not enter the main draw. Indeed, He has not won a match in that phase since last October 17when he defeated Francisco Cerundolo in the opening round of the ATP 500 in Tokyo.
The Buenos Aires player, who had risen 1-5 in the first set, could not beat his rival and fell in an hour and a half of play, in which he did not register any aces, made 2 double faults and suffered six breaks. Relegated to 117th place in the ranking, Schwartzman had questioned his continuity a few days ago, after declaring: “Regardless of the results, I know I don’t have much left in the tank.”
El Peque still cannot find the path to victory.
“There are days when I don’t feel like doing anything, but there are others when I think ‘It’s today.’ Victory always generates something different in your body, with defeat everything costs a little more, It is a painful process that wears you down.“said the 31-year-old tennis player, who recorded his seventh straight loss this year.
The reality is that Peque is going through a critical moment in his career, which significantly differentiates him from the top 8 he was in October 2020. His next commitment will be the preliminary phase of the Miami Masters 1000in two weeks.
Schwartzman will play the Miami Masters 1000 qualifier.
