Australian summers are too hot to handle, aren’t they? Ask the ball kid who was struggling with the heat at the Adelaide International 1 tournament in Adelaide, Australia. Gael Monfils, the 35-year-old gentleman from France, came to his rescue.

Gael Monfils offers help to the ball-boy

During the finals at the Adelaide International 1 tournament, a ball kid was struggling with the heat. He appeared to be in some discomfort and was seen sitting at the back of the court. Gael Monfils, during the mid-game break, spotted the young boy and his state of unease. He rushed to the back of the court with a pair of bottles to help the boy with some water.

The on-air commentators praised this kind act of Gael Monfils. They said, “Good on you Gael. You’ll have a hard time finding a more caring individual than Gael Monfils.” The crowd realized what Monfils had done and gave him a big round of applause on the hot summer day.

‘They Want to Capture and Lock up Novak Again’: Novak Djokovic’s Brother Leaks Out Details of His Situation in Australia

His run-up to the Australian Open 2022

The World Number 19 has been in supreme form recently. At the Australian Open warm-up tournament, the Adelaide International 1 event, he defeated Karen Khachanov of Russia in straight sets to clinch the title. The top seed played some breath-taking rallies against the hard-hitting Russian to add a title to his kitty. He looked in fine touch as he rallied past four players to clinch the title without dropping a set.

The French tennis star, who is married to fellow tennis player Elina Svitolina, could not proceed beyond the first round of last year’s Australian Open. Emil Ruusuvuori of Finland staged an upset to defeat the athletic Frenchmen in that tournament.

However, with form by his side, the energetic and charismatic Frenchman would be looking to dig deep in the Australian Open this year. He could probably be one of the players to watch out for going into the Grand Slam Down Under. Can Gael Monfils stage a major upset in the Australian Open? Do let us know your views in the comments below.
