The last month of the year is a perfect time for tennis players to relax as well as train. While many are already breaking a sweat, French player Gael Monfils recently arrived in Spain. Notably, the former World No. 6 made the appearance in quite a remarkable style.
The former World No. 6 had a convincing 16-7 record in the 2020 ATP season. He won 2 singles titles in Rotterdam and Montpellier, but lost his place in the Top 10. At the 11 spot in the world, the 34-year-old will look to get ahead in the 2021 season.

What’s incredible in Monfils’ resume is that he has been a runner-up in ATP tournaments 21 times. Additionally, he has defeated a Top 10 player and made into a singles final every year since 2005. The Frenchman will yet again woo the crowd with his calm and composed playing style next year.
For that, he has chosen the exotic country of Spain where tennis is played all year-long. Sharing a picture of him in and outside a private jet, Gael confirmed that he is headed to Spain. He wrote, “Heading to Spain for last days of 2020, hard work is coming.”
