Born in Geleen in 1999, Schröder still lives there and plays left-handed with a one-handed backhand. He won the US Open quad singles on his Grand Slam debut in 2020, beating Dylan Alcott 7-6, 0-6, 6-4, and became world No. 1 in doubles at the end of 2021 and in singles in February 2022. By 2026 he had won seven major singles titles, four at the Australian Open, two at the US Open and Wimbledon in 2022, and eleven in doubles, nine of them with Niels Vink. He won Paralympic quad doubles gold in Tokyo and, with Vink, in Paris, and singles silver at both Games, and took the Masters singles in 2022 and 2025. In 2026 he partnered Jin Woodman to the Roland Garros doubles final and lost a third successive Wimbledon singles final to Vink.

"It was the Grand Slam I was never expecting to win."
The person behind the player.

At 20, on his Grand Slam debut, Schröder met Dylan Alcott, winner of six of the previous seven majors, in the US Open quad final. He won 7-6, 0-6, 6-4, stopping Alcott from adding to his US Open titles of 2015 and 2018. "I didn't expect it at all. I'm super happy about it," he said.

In his first Wimbledon he lost the singles final to Dylan Alcott 6-2, 6-2, and in the doubles played alongside the same man. Schröder and Alcott reached the final together and lost in three sets to Andy Lapthorne and David Wagner. A year later Schröder won both events.

Schröder beat Niels Vink 7-6, 6-1 for his first Wimbledon title, saying he had come in better prepared than the year before and that, after so many meetings, the final was a flip of a coin. Vink, still getting used to grass, admitted: "I did some stupid things." Hours later they were partners again and won the doubles on No. 1 Court.

A year after a semi-final defeat he struggled to accept, Schröder came back as world No. 1 and beat Andy Lapthorne 6-1, 6-0 to reach the final. "I have only lost a couple of matches this year, so it is a completely different headspace," he said. He had great memories of the place, he added, even after 2023.

At the first British Open played on grass, the world No. 1 met his doubles partner, ranked second, in the quad singles final. Vink won 6-1, 6-1 for his third British Open title and explained: "I really like that it's on grass." Within weeks they won a third Wimbledon doubles title together.

At Roland Garros in 2026 Schröder, the world No. 1, partnered the 17-year-old Australian Jin Woodman, playing his first event there, to the quad doubles final against Niels Vink and Guy Sasson. Weeks later, on Woodman's first grass, the teenager beat him at Eastbourne on the way to the title.
