Gaston this genius
This guy is unfollowable. And for good reason 👇
Gaston finished the season well by playing quite a few matches to try to re-enter the top 100 quickly, synonymous with a guaranteed place in the main draw of the grand slams. We perhaps expect a much better level as a result. And then first match in Nouméa, he trailed a set zero and double break then came back and beat Maxime Chazal. In the 3rd match he took a 6-0 in the 3rd against Couacaud. Good. Then first round of qualifying here, he almost has a golden 2ᵉ set (set in which the opponent wins zero points). I can assure you that this stat is huge. He confirms then plays Harris. And there, MTO, blah blah blah, and loses... Then drafted thanks to Gojo's withdrawal, he plays a Carballes who really pissed him off in Seville after the US Open. We say to ourselves well, MTO after 2 matches in the paws, facing the hyena of Carballès it stinks. Well no, here he begins to play aggressively and lead to a 2-1 score. Then a big physical breakdown in the 4th which forces him to play with his hand and his talent. And it works... If he lost the 4th he would lose the match. In short, all that to say that in addition to a little insolence, there is genius in this guy. And despite the Rican's very delicate first match, I'm not giving much of his skin because Taylor Fritz will not have the same level once the pressure of losing in the first round is removed. Now, with Gaston we can expect anything. But personally, apart from seeing him potentially confuse Fritz in a set, the difference in power behind is too great.
