Magical points, a delirious crowd, 3 hours and 01 minutes of fierce fighting, at 38 years old Gaël Monfils has once again brought honour to French tennis.
He pushed Grigor Dimitrov, seeded 14th in the tournament,Indian Wells (California, United States), at the end of his tether. But it wasn't enough. Defeat 7-6, 4-6, 7-6.
The last Frenchman in the running at Indian Wells just went out last night. Not the big door. Heroic throughout the match, grandiose in sequences, Gael Monfils ended up giving in in 3 sets. The Bulgarian will play against Carlos Alcaraz in the 8th finals.
Watch below this incredible point between the two men. Get out the popcorn.
Another fantastic point where the two players take turns brushing excellence.
