Gabashvili began playing tennis at the age of six in Tbilisi, Georgia. His mom Anna, who is a doctor, took him to play tennis and began coaching him until the age of ten. Gabashvili's family moved to Moscow, Russia because there he had better opportunities to pursue his dream of becoming a pro tennis player.
