The breakthrough year.
In 2020, Diego beat Rafael Nadal on the way to the Rome Masters final, then outlasted Dominic Thiem in five hours and eight minutes to reach the Roland-Garros semifinals. He climbed to No. 8 and qualified for the ATP Finals.
Life after the tour.
He finished his professional career in Buenos Aires in February 2025. Since then, fans have heard him on Perros de la Calle and in long-form interviews. He has also worked in Player Relations at the Australian Open and joined INTENNSE as a Pulse Partner.
