Q. First of all, great three setter today. You played fabulous. Last time you spoke, you had mentioned that you felt Richard was a stronger player than you were, and that you were most likely gonna face difficulty today. I think it was very clear that you took control of the match right off the bat. I wanted to know what kind of mentality did you go into the match with where it just showed where you were just, I'm winning this match, this isn't going past three sets. GAËL MONFILS: I mean...Read Full Story

Gael Monfils played and won his first match in two months when he defeated compatriot Stephane Robert 6-2, 7-5 in the first round of Madrid today. The Frenchie baller has been dealing with a hand injury which has kept him off the ATP World Tour since Indian Wells in March. He'll face either Fabio Fognini or Philipp Petzschner in the next round. La Monf also debuted his brand-spanking new K-Swiss gear during the match. The 23-year old, who will represent both apparel and footwear, had been...Read Full Story

Q. It was a real fight out there today. Is that always tough to start a two week tournament with a five setter like that, or is it maybe okay to get out there and know you can win a five set match? GAËL MONFILS: I know I can win five set match. I think I'm tough to play in five sets. But today was not a good day for me. I mean, it was like I was fighting against myself, so tried to be like more aggressive, tried to play my game. I think today I was pretty flat. But I'm happy, you know, I come...Read Full Story

Q. What is it about the US Open? You've had great success here; the crowds love you here. Is it something about being in New York, the atmosphere? GAËL MONFILS: Yeah, I love the atmosphere. I love the city, also. I mean, actually the States when I was young, and I was like looking for two things: One, the Orange Bowl, and another thing the US Open junior for sure, and I didn't. I fail like twice in final in Orange Bowl. I came here with injury the year when I won the other three. So, I mean...Read Full Story

G. MONFILS/J. Melzer 6‑2, 4‑6, 6‑3, 6‑1 Q. Some of those shots you've been making, the diving and everything, talkabout your willingness to throw your body all over the court. GAËL MONFILS: First of all, well, I saw the ball, and every time, I mean, for me, like the point is never over. I mean, the ball is a little bit far, but I have to find a solution to jump or to dive or slide or whatever, I mean, to reach it. And when I think I can, I will try to ‑‑ I mean, to do like the magic is coming...Read Full Story

Gael Monfils was taken to the distance today but escaped a first round ousting at the US Open edging out homeboy Robert Kendrick 3-6, 6-3, 6-4, 6-7 (7), 6-4. The match was not without controversy and I'm not just talking about his K-Swiss (more on that in a bit.) With La Monf serving 4-all at deuce, a return by Robert appeared to clip the 17th seed's racquet before going long. The call went against the American who proceeded to complain to the chair with no success. The Frenchie managed to...Read Full Story

R. FEDERER/G. Monfils 7‑6, 6‑2, 6‑4 Q. Probably a huge disappointment. How do you look back on the match? GAËL MONFILS: Yeah, I mean, I'm disappointed, because in the first set I think I have two or three opportunities. I miss like a break point at 6‑5. I think I had the point in the one way,because I tried to rally him and play too much on his forehand and maybe try to set up more on the backhand in the important times. Also with the set point, I think I was thinking aggressive, but I wasn't...Read Full Story

Gael Monfils has announced that he has split with his coach Roger Rasheed. The pair have been working together since 2008, but it hasn’t yielded the right results for Monfils. “We decided to stop our collaboration by mutual agreement,” said Monfils after helping France into the semi-finals of the Davis Cup with a comfortable victory over Germany. “We had reached the end of a great story. I owe him a lot, I learned a lot with him. “It went very well. We talked, we had a good discussion...Read Full Story
