Thanks so much for this. We’re lucky to have you Wivo
❤️❤️❤️
@@WivoRN Yo, vids are sick brother so keep it up.. just a thought.. idk how that match was almost impossible.. anyways it was a great match
Yes we are fr
The title should be "how can a crowd win a tennis match"
Happened again yesterday
@@alistairmartin215 the most accurate match for that is Hugo Gaston VS Carlos Alcaraz at Paris Master 1000. Happy to say that I was there... what a match
Gael Monfils is one of the most creative players in tennis ever.
@Kerryanne I think that's a bad way to look at it yes he should of won more but the showboating is why everyone loved him and that's why he might of lost matches
Yes along with Hsieh and Brown.
Ha
With brown
@@ferraristrategists5949 Gael Monfils is the frenchest players, doesnt play fr the win but for the art and perform the best when every one believes its over
the crowd was more hyped than the world cup lol
That crowd brought him back. I think it's really beautiful the way the crowd cheered him on!
I could watch this video a thousand times👍👌
So enjoyable to see and hear the crowd that support and cheer Gael Monfils 🙂💙
Long Live France💙🙏 🇫🇷
Loved this video! Pablo Cuevas is actually a real crowd pleaser too, often tries crazy shots. But here he just was the opponent. Bad luck for him this turned into a Davis Cup match, although the French crowd didn't seem unsportsmanlike to me.
As a french guy, named Gaël too (yes, that's my name !), I had gooze bump earing "La Marseillaise" from the crowd ! (and a little tear drop...)
I didn't remember this match, so thank you so much for this video :)
This is such a beautiful comment, thank you ❤️
Copain français mdr
he smy guy
This has been dethroned as Monfils' craziest win ever. RG 2023, Round 1 vs Baez. 5th set Gael was serving at 0-4 and Baez was 1 point away from going up 5-0. Gael somehow pulled off the win 7-5 in the 5th. He had to withdraw from his 2R with a wrist problem but still made a really nice memory on Chatrier for himself and the crowd and all his fans around the world who were lucky enough to witness that crazy fifth set if not the whole match. Amazing stuff.
Absolutely true!
Damn even the big 3 doesn't get that type of reaction in their own country.
The French people aren't afraid of being called racists just because they are nationalists. That's the difference.
@@Hawxxy Lol this has nothing to do with racism, you support players from your country, and sometimes it's too extreme, it's part of the sport. Look at british people in Football or in Formula 1 recently, it doesn't matter if you're french, brit or from anywhere else.
Je me rappelle d'une ambiance de folie en Argentine pour une rencontre de Coupe Davis entre la France et l'Argentine où les français avaient été incapable de produire le moindre tennis tellement le public argentin était incroyable
I think most people are fans of the Players rather than focusing on the country that they are from. Not saying either is bad.
@@SukaiTheKleptomaniac not true. they support the player, bcuz he's from their country. Look Gaston vs Thiem RG 2020.
It seemed like a football match 😂
This sense of French pride and nationalism has me crying over here! It's beautiful and heartfelt. America didn't give this to Serena or to any player really.
no other french player could get this hype from a crowd you know, its just gael, only gael, the showman, and we love it.
I laughed when I saw the earthquake title because it is so true!! I saw this game and l was hoarse from screaming Allez Gael!! Tennis is a momentum game and its so hard to keep your momentum going. This is why l admire tennis players a lot. This is also why this channel deserves all the credit it gets. You highlight players and those games that really, truly deserve an encore. Earthquake? Oh yes! Gael moved heaven and earth to play to his countrymen. Gael should see this. Thank you Wivo. ❤️
His match against nishikori was one of the best matches ive ever watched the energy was electric
I thought it would be his match against nishikori
that match was crazy
Nishikori Match was in Montreal Canada, i guess he was getting Francophone sympathy over there.
Me too. The shots he played when saving those matchpoints were insane.
It's really great to hear the crowd get so in to this match and it was an awesome come back. However I feel a little sorry for the other player. It would have been hard to stay focused with the crowd exploding every time you make a mistake.
My favourite player at the moment.
He's so creative and has unbelievable athleticism
If I was Monfils I probably would have tearedup on the spot 😢. There is no better feeling than hundreds of people wanting you to win and cheering you on.
It's not all "showboating. I consider Monfils to be one of tennis' greatest athletes.
His speed, his vertical jump, his reach, his coverage, his ability to recover from diving after a ball.
He may not have won a Master's of slam but, I've seen footage of ATP events won.
and
He ALWAYS wins the crowd.
Watching a Gael's match was pure joy 🧡
The stadium turned into a world cup final in La Bombonera
Monfils + Roland Garros audience is a scary combo. Gives some of the most electrifying & best moments that tennis has ever seen
Poor Cuevas I feel embarrassed for him, must be so hard to play in such conditions, a huge mental strength and concentration are required
Agreed, for me that level of crowd support actually took away from Monfil's achievement. Try this the other way, Gael, let's see what you have then.
@@koborkutya7338 but it wasnt the other way, ridiculous comment. he had the crowd and used them
@@cdf2885 easy-peasy. Why not to put in 4 other players on his side? Then he would use those too. Win against the crowd, that's performance.
Another great video!
Monfils loves
When a french player is playing at Roland, everything can happen.
His last match against Baze in 2023 was one of the biggest come back ever seen
My god I had chills watching this. Unreal
There could be a movie on this match alone!
Wonderfull memoires watching a great talent. Always impressive.
His greatest comeback.
Very nice video! Thanks for the upload
Thanks for watching buddy!
I remember as a wildcard in 2013 Monfils won great matches against Berdych and Gulbis and the crowd went nuts. In 2011 he beat Ferrer 8-6 in the 5th. 2014, beats the cult hero Fognini in the 5th. Dude has made a career of insane matches at the French.
Behind every incredible comeback: heart, guts, and oftentimes, a massive choke from the other end.
We're all villains in somebody's story😉
i love it when he gets Hyped
what a comeback!!!!
The power of the crowd
Cuevas totally collapsed in fear or something. Just wow. His game totally fell apart aftee the crowd went hooligan mode.
One of the best supporters ❤️❤️❤️
If you want to have a look at other enternaining players like Monfils, I highly recommand you to check Barami or Dustin Brown’s matches !
You mean Bahrami ?
one of my favourite players ever
Thank you WivoRN Productions, without you, I would not have seen Gael’s incredible stamina, and belief to win. 👏🏾💜😁🎾
Amazing crowd
Gael Monfils the great entertainer..🥰🥰🥰 ❤ from India 🇮🇳 meanwhile the winner's credit goes to the crowd.
excellente vidéo!
Crowd hype was unreal during his final set tiebreaker comeback against Kei Nishikori
His comeback vs Nishikori 👀. Montreal 2017
Facts it’s still one of the best comebacks IMO
I think it was more the French crowd overwhelming the opponent than Monfils himself... just like when Mlademovic defeated Muguruza.
hes an absolute legend , deserves a Grand slam
H e does not care about winning but just being able to participate, he wins, he wins, he losses he lost but he still got to play a game of tennis.
He brought the soccer crowd with him
Monfils plays for the crowd, he doesn't focus on actually winning matches.
That's a good point (read: sarcasm). He loves to lose and his opponents have no say in the outcome. Yes, he entertains, and that's part of the business, but that guy wants to win, too, it's just that his opponents have something to say about it. His type of play doesn't lend itself to beating the Nadals, Federers, and djoko's of the world. But he probably got more out of his game style than maybe it deserved. $19+ million in prize money means he won, A LOT.
@@dougtennis5147 The only thing that prevented him from being great is his mental side of the game and of course he is a bit of a slacker compared to the big 3 otherwise he has the skill and athletism that could hve made him a formidable force. I remember he was leading by 2 sets to 0 and had 2 match points on Roger Federer in the 2014 US open quarter final . He lost both and went on to get broken in his service game , mentally crashed after that not to recover again till Federer won the Match. The crowd was rooting for Federer as usual no matter how many trick shots Gael came up with . Players who got it mentally win whether the crowd is for them or not plus Monfils lacks that killer instinct or that competitive spirit at a higher level . He always seemed to be content with where he is at and he would spend more time entertaining (even on crucial points or games) rather than competing . The Big three have that big ego that makes them push for the summit no matter what it takes coz they want to be the greatest.
@@moxide There's no doubt about the egos of the big 3, and over the years monfils' initial ferocity seemed to have morphed from scowls to smiles. But after being involved in tennis as long as I have and understanding that it's not just about you and your mentality, but the fact that there's an opponent on the other side of the net attempting to impose their own game and purposely trying to keep you from playing your best, who have better skills (as with the big 3 over monfils, who often pushes the ball and only pulls the trigger when he is 100% comfortable), there's so much more to it than just one particular area. Monfils made it to the top of Everest as far as I'm concerned. You say the only thing that" prevented him from being great..." I ask you, in what field of endeavor, where you reach the TOP 10 of everyone on the entire face of the earth, a population of over 7 billion with 87 million participating in your field (the actual number of world wide tennis players) are you not great? I just don't understand, probably because I worked in the game and saw everyday juniors who worked extremely hard who couldn't achieve beyond regional competition, much less have any chance of playing top tier D1 or low level pro. I've also known players on the D1, Futures, Challenger, and ATP with world rankings (I'm not bragging about this, only saying I've been around and known people who compete at these levels), and what Monfils has been able to achieve is nothing short of a miracle. You have a better chance of being struck by lightning on a perfectly blue sky day than to get where he's been. If Monfils isn't great, no one is.
@@dougtennis5147 I am not going to argue for the sake of arguing , you made some very good points here and you put it in a perspective that i had not envisioned. I am sure you understand where i am coming from though , if you rooted for the guy like i once did then you understand how frustrating it can be to be backing him because it felt like he could do greater things if he took the game a lil bit more seriously but you are right character and hunger is something that you cannot teach maybe the big three are just savages when it comes to how they approach the game something that is hard to follow.
@@moxide You make strong points, too, but I don't really know what his work ethic is to be able to comment that this is why he doesn't win. I often wondered watching him that he would get quite winded (compared to his opponents in the same rally) and thought he was using the tournaments to get his fitness rather than putting in the work. And you're right about commitment at that level, if he's lacking in it at all, the other guys who are fully committed (like the big 3 and Tsitipas, Medvedev, etc.) will just pass him by which they have and he is getting by on past work and talent/athleticism. I guess I was in the business too long and saw the miracles it took to play even in the top 200. Monfils' 20 year career mostly in the top 20, or at the least in the top 50, I cannot begin to fathom, and even the most talented don't get there without an incredible amount of work that led to it. (Even Kyrgios worked a lot harder at tennis then he would admit, especially in the formative years.) I've only known personally one guy who was ranked in the top 20 singles, and he played in the 80's and 90's. He lived, breathed and drank tennis...and if you knew who he was he would be called a journeyman and sometimes a giant killer, but as with Monfils, never great. If the guy I knew and monfils weren't great, then everyone else I know who play are just pond scum. Just a difference in perspective and you have every right to your opinions.
Tbh that was maybe a bit too much from the crowd, feel bad for Cuevas, its very hard to contentrate and keep cool with everyone cheering the opponent on...
This game is like a Davis Cup, France vs Uruguay
I love Gael.
So athletic
Despite not winning grand slams, there's nothing better than watching thay generation of French tennis players playing at Roland Garros
This is so disrespectful of the other player, poor Cuevas!
that top on monfils is fire
ほんとかっこいい
WTF!! He did not win the match. The crowd literally won the match for him and completely demoralized the opponent.
With all love and respect to Gael, the umpire should've cut the crowd's cheering, especially during points.This is not a normal fan behaviour in tennis
The lenglen court has a fucking good vibe
he turning the crowd like in a football match.. 😵
It's unbelievable how Cuevas lost his mind and choked the 2-1 sets, 4-1 games lead after that singing from the crowd and Monfils starting to play a bit better. Best example of how momentum can change the whole game
He played like Dustin Brown. Very entertaining...
Man, I forgot about Dustin Brown
Dustin Brown plays like Gail Monfils lol
Always liked Monfils. He's a generous player.
Such a beautiful anthem La Marseillaise is...
Monfils is has a reckless and warrior approach to playing ! He battles the ball ! Joyfully
I am wondering what happens if there were Djokovic instead Cuevas :D I am sure we can watch pretty amazing moments
Prime example of home court advantage
Still waiting for double Monfils Melzer.
Gail Monfiels a true entertainer.
😎👍 Yep!
W O W.....
Did the ref have to tell the crowd to calm down after each point? Lol
YOU are the best
The same scenario happened again this year Roland Garros 2023
Cuevas, uno de los jugadores más lánguidos y laxos que haya visto jamás.
ATP Челленджер - Лион, грунт, 1/8:
Ставка №3: Отте - Имер Э., 2 (+2.5) К1.99 (Проход: 75-80%)
- в лайве: в случае брейка - удваиваемся и доливаем Имера с (+) форой!
Fans are responsible for earthquake.
Does anyone have the link to the whole match please.?
Unfortunately not, very sorry
well he did have home court advantage. iFeel bad for the other guy..
Would someone please tell me what is that background music track in the opening of this video?
Naruto rainy day remix by Ksolis, link in the description mate
@@WivoRN You stunned me with that fastest reply!👍
my pleasure
This was like they were playing a davis cup match😂
"Win the crowd."
This is why they should have kept Davis Cup for godsake... We don't want those exhibition games that tennis offer now... Sports is all about emotions shared with the crowd
In tennis, if they want, people can support a player, but the way a soccer match is played, it should be prohibited.
The reason is the following, tennis is an individual sport (doubles is a totally secondary extra), if people or whatever disturbs the player's concentration, this game has no meaning.
Its a shame Gael never won a grand Slam, the same can be said for Tsonga..can almost compare this to the great football team of Brazil 1982 and 86 playing wonders but no trophy award
Pity to the other Player..
I wanted to see the handshake
tennis matches usually has these sounds - grunt, tock-tock-... tock..grunt-tock......and claps. The same thing repeats for the entire match - a grunt as they put extra effort into each hit, then the sound of ball hitting the racket mixed with some grunts and then audience claps, umpire announces score...
but here, its foot ball time, shouting yelling, clapping, singing , of course the grunts and other sounds mix the air.
name song ????
In the description mate
Is the court damp or what?
Umpire should have said
Game set and match Fans 😂
It is not in English so can put English cc
Its also called a tilt
video starts at 6:00 :D
this is honestly sad to watch... This kind of crowd's behaviour shouldn't be praised...
It wasn't Monfis' success that won this match, it was Cuevas' fails.
0:50
5:00 🔥
@6:13
To be absolutely honest, I felt the end reaction by the crowd a bit underwhelming! I mean compared to how crowds go absolutely bonkers in a cricket or football match when they win. I guess tennis crowds are a bit more reserved.
