GREGORY GAULTIER:
I’M NOT THAT BAD …
I met Grégory for the first timein the
European Club Championships in Rennes, and of course, the conversation
came to the famous match - Beachill v Gaultier in the 2003 World Team
Championships.
“I don’t think the reports from Squash Player and Malcolm Willstrop were
fair”, said the very young and passionate French player.
“Yes, I can be noisy and loud sometimes, but it comes from my temperament,
and that I dig in to be able to play at the level I’m trying to play. It’s
my fault and my strength. But those reports hurt me tremendously, because
I don’t see any such reports on other players that are very often out of
order or even aggressive on court. So why did they hit on me, and not on
the others as well?”
Don’t think for a minute that this young man dwells on the past, but he
has been extremely hurt. Did he deserve it? I don’t know, I wasn’t there.
But one thing is sure. He is young. He is talented. He is cute. He’s got
personality. He’s got passion. And you’ll hear about him in the future.
Again and again…. |
