What Monfils said about Svitolina
Get out your tissues.
Monfils wrote: âEight years. Eight years to climb back to the top of a Masters 1000.
What a season, what a week, what a player. But above all, what a woman. An incredible mom to SkaĂŻ, an exceptional athlete, a soul like no other. Iâm so proud of you, my love. Of your strength, your calm, of everything you carry quietly day after day. You inspire me, every single day. Enjoy this, soak it all in. You deserve every second of it. I love you.â

Monfils is about to have a big week
Thursday is a big day for Monfils. He is planning and hosting an event at Roland Garros. There are bound to be plenty of surprises as the occasion is to give the French star a proper sendoff as 2026 will be his final year on the ATP Tour.
Svitolina was close lipped about the people and events happening on Thursday. She shared that he is planning a 9-5 job when his playing career concludes later this year.
It is hard to envision the charismatic Monfils making such a drastic career change, but we wish him the best.
