Penning down his emotions, he dedicated his victory to his daughter, Skaï. His wife, on the other hand, was having a nerve-racking battle of her own back at their home. Monfils overcame an impossible 0-4 gap to upset Sebastian Baez. But the fifth set was not emotionally overwhelming for only the player.

Consequently, his wife, Svitolina, stated, “I was screaming in my room.” Giving voice to her excited emotions, she added, “If someone heard me, it’s me cheering for Gael. It’s an unbelievable match.”

Besides that, Monfils showed up for his wife who herself is taking part as the French player. She stated, “I don’t know what he’s doing here now. I think he should be resting. I’m thankful for him for coming to support me.”

Scripting such a memorable comeback did not let Monfils enjoy it on his own. Hence, he went on to root for his wife as well. Now, Svitolina has reserved herself a third-round match. 

On the other hand, Gael Monfils is going against Holger Rune in the second-round match. Rune has proved to be a tough opponent. Besides that, the Danish player took down Novak Djokovic in the Italian Open quarter-finals.
