BUENOS AIRES, Feb 14 – Argentina’s Diego Schwartzman, a former world number eight, ended his professional tennis career yesterday with a bruising defeat by Spain’s Pedro Martinez in the second round of the Argentina Open.
Schwartzman, currently ranked 386th, pulled a surprise in the first round by beating 40th-ranked Nicolás Jarry of Chile in three sets, his first win in 16 months.
But on Thursday he was outclassed by 41st-ranked Martinez 6-2, 6-2, bringing the curtain down on the career of the Argentina player.
Schwartzman had previously announced that this would be his last tournament.
