This was the emotional farewell from Monfils at Indian Wells: "All my expectations have been fulfilled"

Gael Monfils received a well-deserved and warm tribute after falling in Indian Wells 2026 against Félix Auger-Aliassime and bidding farewell to the tournament held in the Californian desert. "I feel like I have given my all on the court and have enjoyed it a lot. My parents always instilled in me that tennis, besides being a job, is a game, a sport, and that it is necessary to have fun while practicing it. All the expectations I could have had in my career have been fulfilled, I have been very happy here, a tournament that I first came to with my mother and that I always dreamed of playing as a child," the Frenchman recounted.

THANKYOU 😍
