Gasquet injured

Bad news from Richard Gasquet that will not compete at the Australian Open because of the groin injury that made him also miss the Davis Cup final against Croatia.

The Frenchman released the following comment

“I’ve got a kind of strain at the top of my left leg. I hope to be back playing in February but what is certain that January is completely out for me.”

The Frenchman is in the entry list in Montpellier (4-10 February).

In 2018, Richard reached the 3rd round in Melbourne before losing to Roger Federer in straight sets.
