I adore Gasquet. He always appreciates good shots of his opponents, he rarely ever loses his temper, he is fair and he looks like he genuinely enjoys his sport. Will miss him when he retires for sure!

That backhand half volley by Gasquet was perfection

Beautiful quality, thx for the upload!

Such awesome footage. Thank you

those backhands of gasquet are just pure joy, he makes them so effortless

Gasquet's backhand is so beautiful. Eggball from his backhand is too dangerous! I think he is the best player in France😘

Gasquet's biggest problem is that he adopted Nadal's forehand but doesn't execute it with nearly enough power. Gotta credit Federer -- and Nadal, too, to some extent -- for knowing when to hit a flat, hard forehand. Gasquet does it a few times in a row at 2:49, but still not nearly often enough for his forehand to be considered a weapon.

Mmmyess yeah I saw those couple forehands but he doesn’t hit them consistently and tries to loop his forehand with mad topspin.

Gasquet’s backhand is an art form. So beautiful to watch .

1:02 that look XD

I like Sock. He's got a good serve and heavy forehand, and pretty fast around the court as well. But the more I watch him the more I think his backhand is..well.. it's trash compared to the rest of his game. Many of the balls he produces off that side are slow and high bouncing. Obviously he still has great control over the ball (like pro players have), which is the only reason that backhand is just enough to keep him at such a high level. Hopefully he can work on it, and it won't be such a big weakness.

Typical American style of hard court tennis: big serve and forehand, serviceable backhand, solid net game, average defense and short point patterns.

nothing wrong with having a super strong weapon(serve/forehand) and having a comparatively weaker stroke on the backhand. most players have a weaker backhand anyway. Nadal's serve and backhand is pretty weak but that hasnt stopped him from winning so much off his crazy forehand and speed.

Sock’s forehand looks so much stranger from this vantage point

Definitely. I used to watch Sock on TV and wonder why he wasn’t dominating everyone with his forehand. But whenever I watch his matches at court level, it never looks like his opponents are having a lot of trouble handling his forehand.

Just beautiful

2:21 wtf

Great upload and lesson in net clearance! Thank you

Gasquet and sock prolly have same grip on forehand just hit on opposite sides of racquet

Yeah man. What kind of idiot yells in the middle of a tennis point. Especially something like DROPSHOT! or OUT! People that don't play the game need to know that is not allowed in the middle of the point. Very distracting and disrespectful. This isn't football or soccer here. No matter how much you like a player people need to shut up.

I hope you did not sacrifice enjoying match live to get this video. Great video

Look at the amount of spin they're putting on the fucking ball. sheesh 0:56

Gasquet.

Looks like Sock is trying to play like Kyrgios with his technique

Gasquet would have played more slice backhand for prevent Sock to attack with his forehand all the hight topspin balls.

@alejandrocrespo7633

I think Gasquet was trying to pressure Sock's backhand with the high topspin balls, but Sock was running around the high balls well and hitting with forehand... for example the point at 1:48

Funny that most of the highlights were of Gasquet yet Sock won the match...

One of the best vs one of the shittiest backhands on tour

Still trying to figure out how does Gasquet win most of the points shown in the video and sill wind up losing the match. In my Trump’s voice:” Most rigged clip EVER!” 🤣🤣🤣

why si that all these american players ever since roddick have this annoying high torque forehand and shitty backhand
