Richard is out of the Australian Open after losing to Tommy Robredo in the fourth round, 6-4, 6-2, 3-6, 6-4.

Richard had a high first serve percentage, and nearly matched Robredo for winners. However Gasquet hit nearly 10 more unforced errors than his Spanish opponent.

Richard played a varied game, coming to the net often, but was not able to have much impact on Robredo's serve.

The Australian Open site have written a brief summary of the match,

"No.18 seed Gasquet struggled with his serve throughout the match and the Spaniard made the most of his opponent's woes, creating 21 breakpoints and, while he converted just four of them, it was enough to see him through.

The Frenchman was forced to defend breakpoints in his first two service games of the fourth set and appeared to be through the worst of his troubles when he managed to hang on and then hold his next game comfortably.

A determined Robredo wasn't to be denied, however, and eventually did break Gasquet's serve - after going up 15-40 in the tenth game of the set - to take the match."
