Gasquet faced an emotional comeback himself after he tested positive for cocaine at the Miami Open in 2009. "It is never easy to come back, of course. I think she had 15 months. It's quite long to come back (after that). Mentally and physically it will be tough for her," Gasquet said.
"(Sharapova) need(s) to play enough and of course it will be ok for her in the future. We will see... for every case it is different," Gasquet added.
