I know.. just pulling Raven's leg... Gasquet mostly loses in the 1st round at Wimbledon.. it isn't his surface...

Yeah his ball sits short and gives plenty of time to be whacked plus it won't bounce high due to the grass. Plus he has a weak serve

I love Gasquet's backhand drive. I don't care if he loses or wins a game, as long as he gets in a couple of those shots in the game.

ofcourse I lost £100 on him this time. But there have been times I won before 2010.

He made semifinals twice there.. almost thrice sinc ehe came very close to beating Murray in 2009.

Just that his overall game deteriorated since 2007.

he now plays only to please his fans like myself.  Exhibition tennis. He'll even try a few trick shots between games. lol. He's been doing this since early last decade itself.

He should have beaten a geriartric Federer. That he couldn't shows how bad his overall game has gotten.

Still I love him. He's a cool guy.
