2021: First ATP final & Masters quarterfinal & Top 100

[edit]

In March, Gaston won his first match at the ATP masters 1000 level as a wildcard at the 2021 Miami Open defeating Dominik Koepfer. He entered the top 150 on 10 May 2021 for the first time in his career.

In June at the 2021 French Open, Gaston reached the second round in doubles, on the 4th consecutive attempt being awarded a wildcard each time, partnering with fellow Frenchman Arthur Cazaux.

In July at the Swiss Open, Gaston beat Juan Manuel Cerúndolo, fifth seed Federico Delbonis, fourth seed Cristian Garín in the quarterfinals, and seventh seed Laslo Đere in the semifinals to reach his first ATP semifinal[29] and final,[30] where he lost to third seed Casper Ruud.[31]

At the 2021 Rolex Paris Masters, Gaston entered as a qualifier and reached the quarterfinal of a Masters 1000 for the first time in his career, defeating fellow Frenchman wildcard Arthur Rinderknech, twelfth seed Pablo Carreño Busta, and Carlos Alcaraz.[32][33] Ranked No. 103 he became the lowest-ranked Paris quarterfinalist since Frenchman world No. 121 Michaël Llodra in 2012.

He also qualified for the 2021 Next Generation ATP Finals the next day on 5 November.[34][35][36]

2022: Wimbledon & US Open & Top 60 debuts

[edit]

Ranked No. 74 at the 2022 French Open, he defeated World No. 20 and 19th seed Alex de Minaur in a five sets match, with a super tiebreak in the fifth set, lasting almost 4 hours for his second Grand Slam and French Open top-20 win.[37][38] In the second round he moved past lucky loser and debutant Pedro Cachin to reach the third round for a second time at this Major in his career. As a result, a month later, he reached the top 60 at world No. 58 on 11 July 2022.

He received a wildcard for the qualifying competition in his home tournament, the 2022 Rolex Paris Masters,[39][40] but lost in the first round to Marc-Andrea Huesler. As a result of not being able to defend his points from his quarterfinal run in Paris in 2021, he dropped by close to 50 positions in the rankings, out of the top 100 to No. 132 on 7 November 2022. He won the Challenger in Roanne defeating Henri Laaksonen and climbed 26 positions up to No. 106 on 14 November 2022.

2023: Loss of form and Unsportsmanlike conduct

[edit]

He received a wildcard for the main draw at the 2023 French Open where he lost in the first round to Alex Molcan.

In May, Gaston received a fine for intentionally dropping a ball during his match with Borna Ćorić in the second round of the 2023 Madrid Open, with the aim of forcing the replay of a point.[41] The 144,000 euro fine was higher than his 2023 prize money earnings to that point, but on appeal it was conditionally reduced to 72,000 euros subject to no further similar incidents happening within a year.[42] The ATP stated that they would increase fines by 100% with each consecutive violation in the same season.[43]

In July, Gaston won his second title on the Challenger tour at the Iasi Open in Romania, defeating Bernabe Zapata Miralles in the final. Later in the same month, Gaston won his third title in Trieste, defeating Francesco Passaro in the final.

In January, Gaston entered the 2024 Australian Open as a lucky loser and lost in the second round to 12th seed Taylor Fritz.

In June, Gaston won his first Challenger title of the season in Lyon as the top seed, defeating fellow countryman Alexandre Muller in the final.[45]

At the 2024 Generali Open Kitzbühel he reached the quarterfinals defeating Daniel Altmaier and seventh seed Roberto Carballés Baena. He reached his second career ATP semifinal defeating top seed and defending champion Sebastián Báez in the longest three-set match of his career, lasting three hours and eight minutes.[46][47] He reached his second final after defeating another Argentine Facundo Díaz Acosta, following his retirement. As a result he returned to the top 65 moving 30 positions up in the singles rankings on 29 July 2024 and in the top 60 a week later.

Playing style

[edit]
Gaston playing a drop shot at the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics

Gaston is known for his unique and unorthodox style of play. He is left-handed and utilizes the wide serve on the advantage court like many left-handed players. Gaston weaponizes dropshots often in his matches. He is known to hit dropshots after bringing his opponent out wide with his serve, to make them cover more of the court. After his fourth round loss to Dominic Thiem, Gaston said "I love to do some dropshots. But I can do all the shots in my game, so it's important to change".[48] Thiem said of him "I haven't seen in a very long time a player with such a big touch in his hands, his dropshots are just from another planet".[49] Gaston has a varied playing style and hits sliced forehands as well as backhands to destabilize his opponents. His favourite surface is clay and his backhand is his favourite groundstroke.[50][51]
