Diego Schwartzman organized a tournament in game FIFA 20 to raise money for the Argentinian Red Cross.
During an event called LaChamPlay, Schwartzman was joined by another tennis stars like Dominic Thiem or Juan Monaco. There were many more well-known athletes that took part in the event. It was a real success when it managed to raise more than $275,000 to support the Argentine Red Cross. Schwartzman spoke about the event as well as losing the final match.
“It ruined my weekend... all the good things that were happening over the weekend with donations, I don’t like losing,” Schwartzman said, cracking a laugh. “I deserved better, I was ready to win!”
“We always play on the PlayStation amongst ourselves, but playing with so many people watching and being able to help is different... There were a lot of details that were difficult to coordinate online and with everyone being remote, but we achieved the goal of getting a lot of people to donate lots of money, to have a fun weekend at home and to help those that need it the most,” Schwartzman explained.
“I have to thank all the people that participated, my whole family, who did a lot to help. We had fun and a lot of money was raised, both from companies and from people’s contributions. It turned out really well, we were able to help a lot of people and that makes me happy.”
