Diego Schwartzman vs Richard Gasquet: Match Preview

Diego Schwartzman

The Argentine is seeking a win at the Paris Masters that will assure him a berth at the ATP Finals in London. The World No. 9 is the runner-up of the Italian Open and a semifinalist at the French Open. Later, Schwartzman lost the Cologne 2 championship finals, against Alexander Zverev in straight sets 6-2,6-1. The Argentine is eyeing the title of the Bercy Championships and will open the campaign against Gasquet.

Richard Gasquet has not secured a win in the last three tournaments he played. Gasquet lost the opening round of the French Open following first-round exits at European Open and St. Petersburg as well. The Frenchman is sure to have the local support, but he needs much more than that to beat an inform Diego.
