Gasquet to face compatriot in Stockholm Open q'finals
MANILA, Philippines — Philippine Maverick Richard Gasquet will be facing a familiar foe in a bid to extend his winning ways in Sweden and punch a semifinals ticket.
Gasquet, the second seed in the Stockholm Open, is slated to take on fellow Frenchman Jeremy Chardy later today.
Ranked 12 in the ATP rankings, Gasquet will also look to deal Chardy his third loss in their career meetings.
Chardy is currently ranked 29th in the ATP ladder.
The two have tangled exclusively on hard surfaces. This will be the second time Gasquet will be meeting Chardy in a quarterfinals session—the last being in Sydney in 2009.
Gasquet is set to join World No. 1 Serena Williams and Men’s No. 9 Milos Raonic in the Philippine Mavericks.
The right-hand French maestro is also in seeing action with the Mavericks for the Philippine leg of the International Premier Tennis League.
The tournament kicks off first week of December and will hit fever pitch here, December 6 through 8.
