The Argentina Open has been running for a long time in Buenos Aires and former champions Dominic Thiem and Diego Schwartzman will return to the event.
The clay event is an ATP 250 event held in the early part of the season in it will return in 2022. The event is usually a very strong one with a lot of great players attending and 2022 will be no exception. Dominic Thiem has been confirmed for the event where he lifted two trophies already. The first one came in 2016 with the 2nd one coming in 2018.
Another former champion will also return in 2022 with Diego Schwartzman set to defend his trophy from last year in 2022. The 2021 Argentina Open was the first trophy, Schwartzman won on native soil so it's a special event for him in many different ways. The Austrian has been working hard to return to tennis but he suffered another setback recently.
Announcing the news of Twitter he wrote:
"After speaking to my team, we have decided to return to Austria, instead of flying directly to Australia. Unfortunately,
I caught a cold (and tested negative for COVID-19) while in Dubai and
was unable to practice last week. I will therefore not be in the physical
condition required to be able to play the ATP Cup and Sydney ATP 250."
It further read:
"After
not competing for the last six months I can't take the risk of coming
back too soon and picking up a further injury. Overall, the time I spent
in Dubai was great as I have increased the intensity and level of
practice and my wrist is almost at 100 per cent. My aim is still to play the Australian Open but we will make a
final decision about my participation by the end of December."

- Can't help but suspect Vukov is back to his old self again. Thank you, WTA. Perhaps you can give them a "Battling Couple of the Year Award 2026" ??

- One step by another step -- WTA continues to 'lose the plot'. Too many hi-tech microphones being installed at most venues!!! Remove them (especially those along the hallways, sidewalks, and pathways throughout the venues. Not to mention (most of all) remove the mic's from the Players/Coaches Box.mandoist06-11-2026

- Don't you just love this young lady!? We fans often expect athletes to be supermen and superwomen, often forgetting that they WILL GET TIRED! I love Alex's perspective. Tiredness for an athlete should never be viewed as a negative, especially if you are healthy, taking care of your body and mental health and putting in the work. What a mature perspective. Good for you, Alex!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Jess is absolutely correct! But the disrespect is a trait I have noticed in most of the Russian players. Mirra is good but very immature and lacks humility. Conceivable needs to get a handle on that!Rapunzel05-11-2026
- Having spent weeks and weeks through the years on tour, I can say with confidence that Conchita was (is) one of the very few who realize the surprising level of maturity (and sometimes lack of) which Mirra seems to have developed in such a demanding adult world of Pro-Tennis. While at the same time reminding herself (Conchita, that is) that Mirra is still young and developing mentally and physically. The general public may forget at times, or not at all realize, these modern era young athletes do not have a 'normal' Youth. It's a major sacrifice, among countless sacrifices, these athletes must make. People who blow-off that fact are ignorant and unfair when they blurt out, "They choose fame so they have to put up with the intrusions on their lives". No, they do not.mandoist05-11-2026
- Okay... someone with a camera was EAVESDROPPING on a private conversation. Shouldn't that be the point of discussion here? Regardless of the sensationalist crap by media, Pegula (and anyone) has a right to an opinion. There used to be an expectation that private conversations were respected, regardless of 'stardom' and whatever other defensive excuses media tries to shove in our faces. Boo-hoo if feelings are hurt. BTW: Having been employed at various tourney venues, etc., I can't tell you how nasty and offensive players can be when discussing their opponents and colleagues... in "private". Well, I could, but won't. I also challenge anyone to deny what Jessica said is false.mandoist05-11-2026

- After a couple decades traveling to IIHF tourneys overseas... our family is done with it... and I will not be the only one!! Bad enough the NHL allows Ovachenko (a Putin Supporter and Campaigner) to live and play in the USA. Let's not forget the STATE SPONSORED RUSSIAN DOPING PROGRAMS still in effect today.mandoist31-10-2026
