      @@NamesAreRandom Monfils is so fast, he usually don't predict/commit to a side before the opponents has already hit the ball. He is one of the only players on the tour to do this, and it's only possible because he is lightning fast, and it requires one heck of a stamina.

    Honestly, this is one of the least expected first round results. I thought Monfils wouldn't have much left in him after winning Auckland (correction, I have mistaken it with Adelaide) and I would totally bet on Perricard if I was betting. But I couldn't be more wrong. Superb performance against the young monster with great form and killer serve.
    Some interesting stats: Perricard is usually above 80 percent in 1st serve points won, but today he was only at 74. How did Monfils return so many 200+ km/h bombs? Also his own serve was super impressive, hit only one ace less than Perricard and even with 16 double faults he faced zero break points, it's quite unbelievable (superb timing of those DFs lol). But the most impressive stat is probably the unforced errors. If we exclude the DFs, he only missed 18 shots during rallies over 5 sets and almost 4 hours of play. Not many players can be that solid in such a long match. Hope he has enough energy to win a few more matches. He's been playing some of his best tennis this year at 38 and I am really happy for him.

      I'm so happy for Monfils, first time seeing him playing so mature, and managing to cross the finish line beside the difficulties. It seems to me that he has improved on his two greatest shortcomings his mental fortitude and his stamina. Also very impressed by Perricard, if he stays healthy, future holds a lot for him.

      If you watched Monfils in Auckland* (not Adelaide) then I don't think this is a surprise at all, he was playing great & I found it odd so many people were tipping GMP (great player & in form don't get me wrong, but Monfils has experience+form going in).

      @HS1-1 Thanks for the correction, he won Adelaide title in 2022, but this year it was Auckland, sorry I messed up. It is a surprise for me, even knowing and seeing his form at that tournament. He had very little time for preparation and rest after last week and he looked exhausted in some of the Auckland matches, especially in the semifinal against Basavareddy. So I had no doubts about his form, but I didn't expect him to be physically ready for winning slam matches after the long successful week, especially against such a strong first round opponent. Hope his body can take him to the second week because the form and confidence are definitely at very high levels.
