      Once you reach the top 10 in the world at anything I don't think you can criticize his winning ability. You don't get to that point without that belief inside of you.
      Guys like Djokovic/federer/nadal literally sacrifice 100% of their time to their craft. With that comes leading a pretty boring life. Immence respect to that level of dedication but don't mistake monfils having fun with a lack of will.

Lack of mental capacities to be able to keep his mind clear while he's tearing his body apart in the physical fight for the game.

    The common point of this matchs is that after all of them he did not continue to play tennis, in 2009 it was the end of the season, in 2016 played great in Monte carlo but was injured after and did not play the rest of the clay court season including the French open. After the match against nishikori in Montreal 2017 he did not play cincinnati and had to quit at the US open 3rd round due to injury. In 2019 he beats Kholshreiber in what is for me the match of his life in terms of tennis and then he did not play the next match and even the next month due to injury and dropped the dynamic. 2020 ? I have no words for it...

      He was God mode only on the beginning of 1st set and end of second set (then lost it on a tiebreak I think). He's just not as regular as rafa

    The most frustrating tennis player ever. So, so, so much talent and so likeable a personality, but just missing that champion's mentality.

    I don't know why he had never reached grandslam winner level but he is a fantastic athlete that could have been a pro in others sports. I am sure of it, many sportsman at an early age plays 2 or 3 sports pretty well and they have to choose one eventually.
