World No.1 Daniil Medvedev recently emerged as the winner of the US Open 2021. The Russian defeated Novak Djokovic in straight sets in the finals and ended his 27-match winning streak at the Grand Slams. The final scoreline of the match was 6-4, 6-4, 6-4.

In a recent interview to Welovetennis.com, World No.15 Diego Schwartzman revealed that a shift of guard is taking place in the sport and that is good for it. He believes Medvedev winning the US Open 2021 title will, in a way, bring down the dominance of Djokovic, Nadal, and Federer.

“It’s possible and it makes sense for it to happen. Perhaps the illogic thing is that every year, we wonder how long they would continue to win everything. Rafa and Roger had injuries. Djokovic is still at a very high level and they are all legends who do their best and if they are physically well, they are still the best,” said Schwartzman in the interview.

The Argentine explained that even though Nadal, Federer, are Djokovic are still playing well, their era of hegemony might come to an end soon. However, he lauded all of them and claimed that they are still one of the best players.

In the same interview, Schwartzman named Andrey Rublev, Stefanos Tsitsipas, and Alexander Zverev to earn a big name in tennis once the ‘Big Three’ bid goodbye to the sport. He feels that they have huge potential and can win many titles in the future.

“After that, I think there are many very good very young players, such as Rublev, Tsitsipas or Zverev, who took a long time to mature and make this change,” added the Argentine player.
