Monfils parle de Kouamé : "Il est beaucoup plus intelligent que moi à son âge"

Gael Monfils is facing his last appearance in each tournament he competes in, and the ATP Masters 1000 Montecarlo 2026 will be very special for him because of everything he has experienced in this setting. From being a finalist against Nadal, debuting against the Balearic player, and defeating Federer, to getting injured during warm-up. He referred to this with emotion in a press conference marked by words about Moise Kouamé, who many compare to him.

"He has a great physique, moves spectacularly, and can play direct tennis because he possesses a great forehand and a backhand that I would have certainly wanted. He is much smarter than I was at his age, has an impressive maturity," he said.
