I’m a woman and I’m 4’8 even shorter. I’ve never let my height discourage me from doing anything. I just started tennis a month ago and my coach says that being short is a good thing in tennis. I guessss I have a better sense of gravity than those of talent people. Diego is def an inspiration
so we're just going to pretend that he's John Isner? It's not an insult, it's actually a compliment that despite his size he has some incredible talent
Vitor Hara his height is only important for the fans and the media because when the pro players are about to face him they only talk about that cause everyone keeps asking them about it. The pros knows that on that level (top 15) doesn’t really matters.
unowen7591 talent is innate, has nothing to do with height. Everything else is just hard work and mental strength. Nobody has to pretend he is isner but that doesn’t mean you have to make a big deal about height difference every match.
Height matters a little bit alright. But the science behind the tennis ball is that, gravity will pull down that ball and height doesnt matter anymore.
pluto15 new what the f***** are you saying??? You realize how dumb you sound? What you say just exposes to the world that you clearly don’t play tennis and don’t know even a thing. Height does matter in tennis, there is an advantage. BUT BUT it isn’t everything, there are many factors that define a player skill level. Your explanation about gravity on the ball in relation to a person’s heigh is utter rubbish! Stop trying to sound smart.
it would have been so easy for schartzman to say: My height is a disadvantage and the succesfull players are 2 meters height. But he is a monster and doesnt play around in the ATP circuit. I hope to see him in the top 10 soon.
Zverevs height was actually a disadvantage cause hes getting tired as the match went on and on. Diego is always the favorite vs zverev when they have to play 3 or 4 hours.
Lukas H. That’s just BS, that his height wore him down. He is not like Isner or Karlovic, who aren’t as mobile. He is quite mobile, though not as explosive as Tsitsipas and Medvedev who are of similar heights. His passive play and lack of intensity throughout the 2nd and 3rd set and early 4th, as well as other factors were what cost him the match. I actually watched the match and it was later in the 4th set that he finally woke up and played a little better. Sorry, but the height being a disadvantage is just BS with Zverev. He is not like those giants from back then who cannot really move or play through grindy matches. Height was not a factor in how he lost this match.
@@JiraiyaSama86 zverev is way to tall and not fit enough to play rallies all the time and beeing fit after 3 4 hours . Every single time he has to play vs a really good opponent and he has to run for 3 or 4 hours hes tired , not like a for example thiem . And yeah his height has something to do with that. Medvedev was tired af too after 3 4 hours play. And tsitsipas is not quiet his height and hes way more athletic than zverev so that comparison is bs.
I was never saying that he lost the match because his heigt was a disadvantage . I was just trying to say that when he has to play 3 4 hours against a physical dude like diego , he doesnt win the match that often because he doesnt move well anymore cause hes pretty big.
Lukas H. They are young. They haven’t completely maxed their frame yet. You have no idea how they are going to peak. No one does. So do not presume that he is doomed just based on this. You seem to be forgetting that Medvedev nearly won against Rafa and managed to keep it close to the end at the US Open Final. And it was best of 5. It takes time. These days even more so. Most players peak at around 25 to 27 now, maybe later. Del Potro has shown it’s possible, and he’s the same height. Height only really affects certain things like leverage, contact zone among other things. It does not have to determine the reason why players lose. They are professional tennis players. They train for how to play all types of opponents. They also know their limits and weaknesses. They train for how to deal with these situations.
Well, it was a break point and for me good highlights inclued crucial points no matter if it was an unforced error or winner. Break points are always crucial so if I was to make highlights I would probably inclued every break point because that is how you get the best image of how the match went.
It’s even better with his setup: 28” length racquet Alu Power 125 strings on cross/main Gives him extra punch power. Overall, an underrated and outstanding player.
Hats off to Diego, although Im not the biggest Schwartzman fan, I truly admire how hard he works and fights, he has worked so hard to get to where he is now despite perhaps a little physical disadvantage compared to some of the other guys at his level
Just because hes smaller than zverev doesnt mean hes less physicall. Actually hes way fitter than zverev as you could see when the match reached 3 hours ,zverev had no power in the 4th set and diego looked like he just went on the court.
Honestly speed is overrated. Agassi used to serve 100 mph, Rafter 110 mph, Fedster 110 mph and get easy service games. Diego just needs to improve his toss and timing imo and he'll be set.
@@farid1406 Dude schwartzman is 1.7m, you think it's easy for him to serve aggressively? He just has to serve with topspin most of the time to get the ball in, can't be smashing flat serves left and right like players with 1.85m+ can. His toss and timing are fucking world class, but there's only so much you can do at that height. Zverev is the one who needs to work on his serve, more precisely his second serve. His second is pathetic for his height, he's hitting so many double faults and pussy 68mph serves like at 21:15
Both schwartzman and zverev have amazing backhands, but their technique is so different! It makes it really tough to decide who to copy. I love watching them go backhand to backhand. The depth and pace of the ball is at such a consistently high quality.
It is nice for club players to see the top guys get the yips and nervous on 2nd serves too. However, I have never seen a top ATP player hit 2nd serves in the 60s like Zverev was...he was really struggling with confidence here
"If you are a big, big tree, we are a small axe, sharp and ready! ready to cut you down, ready! sharpened to cut you down" That intro comes to mind. UB40 sliding a bit of Marley's "small axe" into their version of Al Green's "here I am (come and take me)".
Zverev builds up such good baseline rallies, but he doesn't push forward when its time to do so....it would be 3 set sweep if he steps inside the baseline for approaches after he established advantage on baseline rallies (which he did)
And he sucks at 2nd serves and he sucks when he has to play 4 or 5 sets, you could see it when they played 2.5 hours he looked pretty tired and diego looked like he just came on the court.
I might be wrong, sometimes Zverev, like Andy seems to believe that an inordinate amount of effort is unreasonable. Maybe I've just seen too many Nadal flicks.
@@rolinti9146: I agree with you and Lukas. I don't know how I came up with Andy. Maybe I was having a stroke about this time 7 months ago. Anyway, I'm all better now.
What people don't understand is that a small height is an advantage for a player other than the serve. You can easily maneuver your way around the court and get under the lower balls and redirect them with better efficiency. Even in cricket the very best batsmen are of average height.
A small height might be an advantage in some single aspects of the game but overall is a handicap. There's a reason there's only four or five players under 1,75m in the top100.
Te parece sobrevalorado Schwartzaman? No llega a medir 1,70 mts. y fue número 11 del mundo. Siempre da batalla contra los mejores. Nunca va a estar a la altura de los mejores, pero juega una locura.
No niego que sea bueno pero hay tenistas argentinos q pueden dar más q el solo q todos enfocan en el y ps no creo q sea tan grande como lo pintan así de simple
Schwartzman has such good groundstrokes and timing...truly inspirational for anyone who feels height is their limitation!

I'm tired of people talking about Diego's height, he is an incredible ballstriker and tactician!
so we're just going to pretend that he's John Isner?

Diego can make Fed work for wins over him, and you clowns think he can't beat Zverev and Anderson? LOL
0:18 savage US Open, including Zverev’s double faults in the highlights 😂
13:17
30:30
its a converted break point. they usually include those in an extended highlight vid.

@spiones2 more? That would have been too long for this video...
Diego is such an underrated player. Wonderful shot selection and consistency.
from 3 minutes to 35 minutes highlight - a glow up
It’s weird because I think he’s short but we’re the same height
Yes love Diego the little man is an incredible talent!! Diego is small yet so explosive power.
7:24 Nishikori
I LOVE schwartzman's games. Beatuiful forhand, beautiful over the heads, beautiful volleys, and beautiful ralleys.
Diego, despite the height factor, is able to beat big guys. He is a true inspiration for short people.
I’m 4’8 ( woman ) he’s def an inspiration
@@baby16gurl9 are u into short guys
Schwartzman is already so good, if he was like 10cm taller, he would probably be like top 5
shwartzman is short but I can tell you there's power coming out of his shots!
It’s even better with his setup:
28” length racquet
Alu Power 125 strings on cross/main
Gives him extra punch power. Overall, an underrated and outstanding player.

Cilic in 2017, then Zverev. The little one is to be feared!
Schwartzman’s screams are hilarious 🤣🤣🤣
16:56, the schwartzman's service has big speed
Honestly speed is overrated. Agassi used to serve 100 mph, Rafter 110 mph, Fedster 110 mph and get easy service games. Diego just needs to improve his toss and timing imo and he'll be set.

@Vitor Hara He's probably talking about the average serve speed. Federer has an average first serve speed of 117 mph tho
Grande el peque 🇦🇷
schwartzman a warrior!!! beating 2.0 m man!!
David vs. Goliath
Those service yips are becoming a real problem.

Zverev is the only top player who has a weak second serve. Espacially on break point hes weak af
"If you are a big, big tree,
we are a small axe, sharp and ready!
ready to cut you down, ready!
sharpened to cut you down"
That intro comes to mind.
UB40 sliding a bit of Marley's "small axe" into their version of Al Green's "here I am (come and take me)".

Vai Diego 💪 che carattere che grinta che ha questo ragazzo.
Zverev builds up such good baseline rallies, but he doesn't push forward when its time to do so....it would be 3 set sweep if he steps inside the baseline for approaches after he established advantage on baseline rallies (which he did)
ok he sucks at volleys

Wow i didnt expect this, Thank you for the highlights!
At 34:34 Schwartzman looks like kid with helicopter hat lol
Lol 🤣🤣🤣
Magnifico Diego
Desde chile mis saludos y mis respetos ante tan buen juego, irreverente, agresivo e inteligente
Wow, David beats Goliath!!
If Schwartzman is little bit higher he is one of the best Player in the History
one of the matches of the tournament
When they shake hands at the end of the game it’s like a Hobbit meeting one the Navi from avatar
Tennis isn't like basketball ... height doesn't play much of a role. In fact, being too tall can limit mobility.
I’ve noticed that with players like Karlovic.
7:22って錦織みたいなドロップとか言ってるのかな？(英語全然わからん
zverev b a whole foot taller and still hitting slower second serves
You go, Diego Shortman!
You are perfect?
@@dexvil_yt2605 yep
He is really the super star!!!! Awesome!!!
The US crowd is right! We LOVE DIEGO!!!!!!!! But I just hate when DS returns to the other player feet.......
Yo Diego's girlfriend is a freaking dime!
Schwartzman that backhand is rock solid!
Diego Schnauzer 🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾🎾💙💪💪
I'm a Zverev fan, I really hope he manages to improve his forehand and court position otherwise, it might take a long way to his first Slam.
For real though his forehand is lacking
Desde Chile, mucho luchar para no ser el numero 1.
Plop.
Many people don't know that Zverev is a cheater. He is a match fixer. He only cares about easy money. Not about trophies and glory.
I might be wrong, sometimes Zverev, like Andy seems to believe that an inordinate amount of effort is unreasonable. Maybe I've just seen too many Nadal flicks.
Andy? Andy murray??? Wwwhat , murray is one of the biggest fighters ever, runs for every ball. 🤦🏻♂️
You’re joking about Andy right? He’s known as the guy that runs for every ball, his play at the baseline is defensive
@@rolinti9146: I agree with you and Lukas. I don't know how I came up with Andy. Maybe I was having a stroke about this time 7 months ago. Anyway, I'm all better now.
NotSoHandyTim hahaha 😂 not to worry, we all know that the true goat for tracking every ball down is Tomic anyway
Tiny grandchild of nazi can run but can't hit well. Shame for zverev that he lost in so shitty way. Useless power, no angles, no strategy, emotions.

Great match from Schwartman!

Today, for me, the giant Schwartzman, is more giant
1,70 m like leonel missi
He looks like shorter
Anyone know why or who Alexander was cursing at that cased the point penalty 32:55??
why does zverev grunt sound like a sheep sneezing
Diego the Best!
lmao at 12:13 did he say beep
Nope, he said "Si" which means "Yes"

Loved it❤
What was the penalty point for?
wow imagine if he has a killer serve.
