Gasquet was famous in France when he was nine years old, when Tennis magazine put him on the cover, headlines: “Richard G. Nine years old. The French champion has been waiting?”
Performing billing is a difficult task.
He was 12 years old and beat Rafael Nadal in teenage Les Petits, but as a professional, face-to-face heads were 18-0, with Nadal’s favor. He was 2-19 against Roger Federer and 1-13 against Novak Djokovic.
Gasquet won the junior singles championships in the French Open and U.S. Open, while the mixed doubles for seniors were 17 years old at Roland Garros in 2004, who was with Tatiana Golovin.
He reached three Grand Slam semifinals, including two at Wimbledon and won 16 ATP titles in 2017, won the Davis Cup in 2017 and won the Olympic doubles bronze medal in London in 2012.
In March 2009, he tested positive for cocaine and was temporarily banned for a year but was later cleared, successfully saying that he was unconsciously contaminated after kissing a woman known as Pamela in a Miami nightclub.
He is ranked seventh in the world rankings and matches Federer’s record-winning game in the ATP level for 24 consecutive seasons.
But backhand – that’s everything.
