Gasquet wins first round at Nottingham
Gasquet wins at Nottingham
Richard Gasquet rebounded from his disappointing first round exit at Halle last week by winning his first match at the Nottingham Open over Vince Spadea 6-3 6-4. The frenchman is a two time defending champ at Nottingham. If Gasquet gets a little bit of momentum this week, he could be force to be reckoned with at Wimbledon due to his shot-making talent.
