#5 Richard Gasquet beats Andy Roddick – 2007

4-6, 4-6, 7-6 (2), 7-6 (3), 8-6

Frenchman Richard Gasquet stunned the Wimbledon crowd by staging a remarkable fightback to topple third seed Andy Roddick 4-6, 4-6, 7-6 (7-2), 7-6 (7-3), 8-6 to secure a semi-final against Roger Federer in the Wimbledon of 2007.

Gasquet, then a 21-year-old, ranked 14 in the world, possessed a more complete game than the typical Serve-Volley player like Roddick and played some sublime shots that left his opponent absolutely stunned.

Nerves seemed to get the better of him early in the match as he conceded a break point in the first and third games. Frequent forays to the net began paying dividends for Gasquet while Roddick, whose own service looked predictably impenetrable, was glued to the baseline.

Nerves seemed to get the better of the 21-year-old early in the match as he conceded break points in the initial stages of the match. But his progressive movement towards the net was the key to his comeback.
