Roger Federer vs. Richard Gasquet 7/1/21 - Wimbledon Men Singles Picks & Predictions

Last Updated: 06/30/2021 at 1:10 AM ET

Swiss tennis legend Roger Federer has made it into the second round at Wimbledon. At this stage of the tournament, Roger Federer is set to play against Richard Gasquet from France. 

Roger Federer has missed much of the season due to injury and that was showing during the French Open where the Swiss superstar looked like he was struggling. The opening round of this tournament was also tough for Federer as he was forced to battle for 4 sets and only received his victory following a forced retirement by his opponent. Roger Federer is set to turn 40 this year and while he is still an incredible player, the common issues related to aging are causing the Swiss superstar many problems. Wimbledon has always been a strong tournament for Roger Federer and the Swiss superstar will be hoping he can reignite his winning ways at this historic venue. 

On the other side of the coin, Richard Gasquet enters this match having won his opening match in 4 sets. It was a comfortable win for Gasquet as he impressed with his receiving. During the win, Richard Gasquet won 84% of his service games and 6 return games. It has been a modest season for Richard Gasquet and it is going to require the Frenchman to perform extremely well if he wishes to challenge Roger Federer. 

Roger Federer and Richard Gasquet have played each other 20 times in the past with Federer winning on 18 occasions and Gasquet winning only twice. The most recent match between these two players was 2019 in Spain where Federer won in straight sets. 

 

Both players are aging but I still like Roger Federer to win this match. The grass courts allow Federer to use his stroke playing skills to overcome physical limitations and I see that being enough to give the Swiss superstar an edge. I see Federer winning this match in 4 sets.
