Gaël Monfils continues to fight to not lose relevance, but the wear and tear and physical demands of the sport seem to have taken an even greater toll on him in recent months. The Frenchman has not won a match since Wimbledon: the ATP Chengdu 2025 was seen as a great opportunity to break that losing streak, but it ended in disappointment and issues after he was forced to retire in his debut against Alexander Shevchenko (6-7(3), 6-3, 1-0 and Retired). A fall on his right ankle caused the pain, a bad twist that we still do not know if it may have further consequences in the long term.

  • Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard (6) d. Filip Misolic 3-6, 6-1, 6-4
