Tre tunga namn klara för Swedish Open

Gilles Simon, Richard Gasquet och Alexandr Dolgopolov. Det är tre namn som är mycket nära att spela Swedish Open i sommar. "I år vi ute efter att förnya startfältet", säger Thomas Johansson till eurosport.se.

Tidigare i veckan blev Robin Söderling, Fernando Gonzalez, Nicolas Almagro och Tomas Berdych klara för Swedish Open. Nu kan eurosport.se berätta att ytterligare ett antal tunga namn är mycket nära spel i turneringen i juli.

Det handlar om Robin Söderlings överman från Australian Open, ukrainaren Alexandr Dolgopolov och fransmännen Richard Gasquet och Gilles Simon.

Framförallt Gasquet och Simon är mycket välmeriterade. Båda har tidigare varit rankade topp tio i världen och har tillsammans plockat 14 ATP-titlar.

Trion är ett led i Swedish Opens försök att förnya sig inför årets turnering.

- Det är lite nya ansikten. Vi har alltid levereat ett starkt startfält men det är lite samma startfält som kommer tillbaka. Man vill förnya sig lite också och ha de unga hungriga vargarna som är ute och spelar, säger Thomas Johansson till eurosport.se.

Men det blir inte bara nya spelare i sommar. En av inventarierna, Tommy Robredo, vill komma tillbaka och Johansson utesluter inte heller att världsåttan Fernando Verdasco kommer tillbaka.

- Verdasco vet vi inte riktigt med men han hade ju en dispyt med ledningen i Barcelona. Eftersom Albert Costa, som är DC-kapten är tournament director, kan det få konsekvenser för honom i Davis Cup så man vet aldrig.

Tävlingsledningen bekräftar också att man vill ge Christian Lindell ett wildcard till turneringen.
Three heavy names ready for Swedish Open

Gilles Simon, Richard Gasquet and Alexandr Dolgopolov. There are three names that are very close to play Swedish Open in summer. "This year we are looking to renew the line-up," Thomas Johansson eurosport.se.

Earlier this week became Robin Soderling, Fernando Gonzalez, Nicolas Almagro and Tomas Berdych ready for the Swedish Open. Now eurosport.se tell you that a number of heavy name is very close game in the tournament in July.

It's about Robin Söderling won the war from the Australian Open, Ukrainian Alexandr Dolgopolov and Frenchmen Richard Gasquet and Gilles Simon.

Above all, Gasquet and Simon are very deserving. Both have previously been ranked top ten in the world and together have picked 14 ATP titles.

The trio is part of the Swedish Open's attempt to reinvent itself for this year's tournament.

- There are some new faces. We have always levereat a strong line-up but it's a bit the same line-up coming back. They want to innovate a bit and also have the young hungry wolves that are out there and play, "says Thomas Johansson eurosport.se.

But it's not just new players this summer. One of such furniture, Tommy Robredo, want to come back and Johansson does not exclude that the world number eight Fernando Verdasco returns.

- Verdasco we are not sure of but he had a dispute with management in Barcelona. As Albert Costa, who is DC's captain's tournament director, could have consequences for him in the Davis Cup so you never know.

The organizers also confirmed that it would give Christian Lindell a wildcard into the tournament.
Richard close to be participating in Bastad.

While this
Richard is on the Entry List for Queens!
is logical and totally expected, this
Richard close to be participating in Bastad
is absolutely weird. It is the week after DC for which his nomination seems to be almost a certainty, given his ranking and the surface.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Madrid (02-05-2011)

i cannot pretend to understand Forget and his thinking on Davis cup lineups - so I have no idea who he will choose to play
BUT -Olympic participation is somehow wrapped up in Davis Cup participation. And the Olympics will be in London on grass next time up
I cannot imagine that Richard would willingly pass up a chance at an Olympic medal on his best natural surface - by refusing to play Davis cup
I do not know if his inclusion as the fifth man qualifies him for the Olympics - I think he has to play at least one tie - so this is his chance to do it .

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Madrid (02-05-2011)

I may not always agree with Forget's line ups but I actually do understand where he is coming from most of the time. DC is a LONG way off and anything can happen to any of the players but if the selection were today and Forget didn't select Gael and Richard as the obvious singles players I'd have to say he does belong in the nut house.

I would love for Richard to pull a Simon and say to Forget I'll play only if I'm one of the top 4 - no more alternate for me but I just don't think Richard has it in him to do that. Agree with scmom that if an opportunity for Olympics on grass is possible, don't think Richard would pass that up and this coming DC tie on clay might be the only time Richard is a clear choice for a singles spot. but Olympics is even further away so who knows. It is interesting how Federer has suddenly become a DC player now that there's an Olympics on the horizon.

I'm ready for some more Richie clay court tennis!

:topic: Roger is not suddenly becoming a DC-player, he is 37-11 in Davis Cup, i.e 48 singles matches overall. He started playing DC in 1999 and the only year he did not play at all was 2010.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Madrid (02-05-2011)

Escudé was mad enough to destroy any chance for a french medal by skipping Bartoli and choosing Rezai instead.
Rezai on grass :retard:
Forget is outrageously jealous of Gasquet so he will do what he wants to stop from playing Olympics. And of course he will choose the losing combination Simon-Monfils.
Monfils on grass :retard:
Simon on grass :retard:

I heard there are some issues between Escudé and Bartoli? :eek:

Anyway, it's kind of her fault for not making herself available the past few years...

According to the tournaments' thread, Richard won't play the week before Wimbledon.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Queens (06-06-2011)

Confirmation Richard is playing Stuttgart which is straight after the DC tie v Germany.
:eek: I would not bet my house on seeing him playing there, to be honest.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Queens (06-06-2011)

Will he play for DC? I somehow doubt he would..

He's the inform player on the clay, I guess it will be him and Monfils. I will be suprised if Forget picks Tsonga or Simon over him as he might think they could handle the pressure better playing away from home but Gasquet has had a good clay court season this year.

I hope Richard get's picked though, it would be nice for him to return to DC tennis and in a QF where everything is at stake (But if he looses the tie, I guess all newspapers will be blaming him! :mad: )

But if he's the 5th player once again! :mad: :mad:
With Richard playing the ATP tournament in Stuttgart which follows the DC tie, it's almost certain that he will be traveling with the squad.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Wimbledon (20-06-2011)

Richard isn't on the Hamburg (ATP 500) or Atlanta (ATP 250) entry list which is straight after Stuttgart.

Info l'Equipe de ce matin : Richard a repris l'entrainement et participera la semaine prochaine... à une exhibition à Stock park (2 matchs prévus)
Apparently it is Stoke Park
http://www.theboodles.com/venue-stoke-park.html

Richard not yet on the players' list there, but the information seems credible to me.

Well done, Richard, for not asking this Eastbourne tourney which refused you last year. :devil:

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Wimbledon (20-06-2011)

It looks like Richard will be the 17th seed for Wimbledon.
http://www.menstennisforums.com/showthread.php?t=180522

Which means:

3rd Round:

1-8 v 25-32
9-16 v 17-24

4th Round

1-4 v 13-16
5-8 v 9-12

It's a shame he has been reduced to a lower rank, when you see the players who overtake him :mad::mad::mad: Why is he punished for having be injuried last year ? they should take his last results in Wimbly, been injuried is not like falling in 1st round.

Now i understand why he didn't need to play absolutly the Queen to have a better rank,
but i hope it could be an opportunity not to take the top4 in R16. A Tougher opponent in r3 for a better draw in R16 ? I hope so if he can totally recover from his thigh.

Re: Official Gasquet's 2011 Schedule: Wimbledon (20-06-2011)

It looks like Richard can still face a top a top 4 seeded player in the 4th round if he plays a 13-16 seeded player in R3...... If he wants to avoid a top 4 seeded player in R4, he will have to play a 9-12 seeded player in R3 which are Monfils, Fish, Melzer and Tsonga. Tsonga would be tough but I'm sure he can beat the other 3, I would like him to beat Fish again at Wimbledon in R3. :p

Richard isn't on the Los Angeles, Gstaad or Umag entry lists.
