MANILA, Philippines – Philippine Maverick Richard Gasquet is keeping his wares sharp and ready for the International Premier Tennis League this December.
 
Gasquet, who is currently No. 10 in the ATP ladder, is looking to keep his gears at work at the Stockholm Open, where he is awaiting the victor off Maximilian Marterer and Leonardo Mayer's first round match.
 
The French netter is currently seeded second in the tournament in  Sweden.

Former US Open king Marin Cilic, who will also see action with the Royals, is currently battling it out in Moscow.
 
The IPTL mounts its second leg in the Mall of Asia Arena in Pasay from December 6 through 8.
