Gael Monfils and Elina Svitolina tied the knot yesterday in Geneva after announcing their engagement earlier in April. The wedding reception was a rocking party for the couple as well as guests, where Monfils even showed his dancing skills.
Gael and Elina have been the power couple in tennis for the past two years. Earlier in the year, they’d dropped some dismaying news of their parting of ways; however, the couple was back together within two months of the former announcement.

Monfils and Svitolina had to get married, as their fans supported their relationship in every possible way. However, the French tennis player got his dancing shoes on during the reception party, as his friend joined him as well.
The player looked to be in a state of ecstasy after taking off his blazer and grooving to the beats. He showed hints of Michael Jackson in his moves before he started jumping out of excitement. It was probably the after-effects of the “I do”, as the couple had officially become Mr. and Mrs. Monfils.
