Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Chennai (03-01-2011)

meh note to Richard the idea is actually to go far in some of these tournaments and therefore to have a Nadal schedule not a 52 week schedule :)
^^^Please.

If any insider from Richie's camp logs on to MTF, get him to read the post above.

:eek: Richard not on Marseille entry list.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Chennai (03-01-2011)

:sad: I'm kind of suprised he's not playing Marseille

He could ask for a WC into Marseille but playing Zagreb, Rotterdam, maybe Dubai and the DC tie could be alot for him.

Gasquet, Simon, Chardy :rocker2:

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Australian Open (17-01-2011)

Richard should be looking into peaking at 500 and 1000 events this spring, not playing every single 250 event. I am not sure what him and his team are thinking. He needs confidence by playing and beating good players.

Unfortunately there is a huge problem with 500 events: the draw.
This is very much possible:

Rotterdam, 1st round: Gasquet vs Djokovic
Dubai, 1st round: Gasquet vs Federer

result: 2 crushing defeats, 0 ATP point, 2 weeks lost. + 2 big 0 on his points breakdown. :sad:

The only "good" 500 events are:
Barcelona: 56-man draw, 16 seeds.
Hamburg: 56-man draw, 16 seeds and weaker field because it's just before the US harcourt season.
Basel: end of season, just before Paris MS, weaker field.
And Monte-Carlo, thanks to his ambiguous status.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Zagreb (31-01-2011)

Gasquet & Tsonga are the 1st ALT for Rotterdam.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Zagreb (31-01-2011)

Gasquet & Tsonga are the 1st ALT for Rotterdam.
Apparently Forget asked them to do so. Maybe it finally dawns on Forget, that Llodra is not the God he thinks he is, particulary in an upcoming DC-tie on clay, though I doubt it. :eek:

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Zagreb (31-01-2011)

at least if loses early, he will have something useful to do the rest of the week.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Rotterdam (21-02-2011)

So no tennis for Richard for 2 weeks, rest time for him and let's hope he is better for Dubai.
 
#65 ·
Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Rotterdam (21-02-2011)

I wonder if Forget will call him now. He's still a good player on clay, but confidence is quite low now.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Indian Wells (10-03-2011)

I guess the European Clay season will be the same like last year but he won't play Casablanca and will play the 2 Masters 1000 in Rome & Madrid.

If he can get good amount of points in the upcoming tournaments it would be a good choice not to play Nice just before Roland Garros and not to get himself tierd before it starts.

I guess it will be something like this:


- Monte Carlo
- Barcelona
- Belgrade
- Madrid
- Rome
- Roland Garros

As expected Richard is on the Monte Carlo entry list. :yippee:

Richard is not on the Belgrade, Munich or Estoril entry list.

:yeah: Wise decision, he can't play day in day out on clay, like he did last year. He needs to focus on the ATP1000 events, no use to wear himself out in Belgrade or later in Nice.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Indian Wells (10-03-2011)

I hope he does not play Nice under any circumstances. It was his best event last year but it was then and this is now.. he is working on becoming a steady top 20 player again.. last year was transitional. He is decent ranked player now and will be seeded for RG. He really needs a decent result at his home major, he was never passed 3rd round there. Same thing for Wimbledon he should not play a week before.

According to reliable information on the French thread of rgnet, he won't play Nice. As it stands now: Monte Carlo, Barcelona, Madrid, Rome and Roland Garros.

Djokovic won IW: no surprise, only the best player in the world could stop Richard :p

Confirms that Richard won't defend his Nice title, it's a good idea not to play Nice and not risk to get tierd before Roland Garros and playing this short Exho would be better.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Monte Carlo (11-04-2011)

Richard playing doubles in Monte Carlo with Ljubicic! :eek:

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Monte Carlo (11-04-2011)

Yes I remember that. He said something along the lines of Richard whining like a baby because he had sore fingers and blisters. I think it happened at the USO.
In 2005 Ricahrd won against Ljubicic at the US open in 5 sets. Weird for Ljubicic to moan about an opponent against he lost. :p

Maybe it was 2007 US Open when he retired before playing Young. That was one of his more dubious retirements, he claimed fever and a sore throat, but he looked ok, no comparison to Metz last year when the fever was so obvious. But from the outside one never knows what is really going on.

Whatever! Both events are long ago.
