Dominic Thiem and Richard Gasquet are scheduled to face each other in the first round of the 2022 ATP Moselle Open September 21.
Dominic Thiem competed in the Rennes Challenger in the lead-up to this competition in Marseille, and he is currently in the final there, where he will face Ugo Humbert. And, whatever the outcome of that encounter, Thiem is slowly, but steadily, coming into his own. Sure, Thiem lost in the first round of the US Open late last month – a tournament he had previously won – but the Austrian had reached at least the quarter final stage in four consecutive tournaments prior to that defeat. He had advanced to the semifinals at Gstaad on clay, which is what he would now aim for here.
Richard Gasquet‘s performances this year haven’t wavered despite the fact that he may be 36 and closer to the end of his career than the beginning. Gasquet has improved from a season low of 91st to currently being ranked 79th in the world, so yes, he isn’t quite the player he once was when he was ranked seventh. When you combine his straight-set victories at Davis Cup with his third-round appearances at Wimbledon and the US Open, you have a player who Thiem will be wary of taking for granted. Gasquet has reached the semifinal on two prior occasions and has reached the final once at Metz.
