The ATP tour is set to return in August in the States so players are slowly getting back to playing tennis regularly to prepare for the season. One of those players is Argentinas Diego Schwartzman and speaking to the ATP website he said:

"I was out many weeks. When I was going back to [California] to play Indian Wells, the ATP suspended the tournament, so I came back to Argentina and since then I haven’t moved. I really, really miss the Tour, many of the guys, many friends. I hope to play in August again and be ready for that moment”.

When asked if he was looking forward to competing with the best he responded by saying:

"I don’t want to face Djokovic, Nadal or Federer. Federer is not going to play but for sure [I don’t want to face] Nadal on clay in Paris. We are not going to play many tournaments, but [they will be] big tournaments, so playing against the big [players] I think is not going to be the best."

Schwartzman has a point because players coming back from injuries usually take some time to get back into form and playing against the top competition would not be ideal. He did admit that he plans on playing as many tournaments as he can because as he put it nothing can substitute true tennis matches.

Schwartzman could be dangerous player at the French Open where he once reached the semifinal so we will be watching.
