Richard Gasquet on Dominic Thiem: “No doubt he will come back soon”

“Was it very good Thiem or average Gasquet?
I have a game that suits him quite well. And my ball quality was not very good. In the evening, the balls are very heavy. My lift didn’t take at all. The ball doesn’t accelerate much and I’m having trouble generating power. And when I play short, the opponent is usually better than me. He got me under water pretty quickly. I wasn’t serving very well either. I don’t think I’m fabulous. Clay is something else, it takes a lot of strength. It wasn’t a huge level. The transition on earth is not easy. But there are still a lot of tournaments.

“I made him shine and he knew how to take advantage of it. He hits hard, his ball is heavy.

How to recover this strength?
With training. But maybe it can’t be recovered…

And him, what level was he?
A very good one. I can’t tell you why he doesn’t win more matches than that. It will come back, especially on clay. I made it shine and he knew how to take advantage of it. He hits hard, his ball is heavy. I have no doubt that he will be back soon. It is true that it takes a little time. Its strike force is not common. »
