The match, which concluded just after midnight local time, saw Monfils overcome early adversity, including a painful collision with the courtside signage in the opening game. Despite visible discomfort, he fought back with characteristic flair and resilience, ultimately winning 4–6, 3–6, 6–1, 7–6(4), 6–1. This victory marked his 40th win at Roland Garros, tying him with Yannick Noah for the most by a Frenchman in the Open Era .

 

Jaz Agassi, who has been gradually stepping into the public eye, took to social media to express her admiration for Monfils. Sharing a video clip of his post-match interview, she highlighted his perseverance and passion, stating, “Watching Gaël fight back tonight was nothing short of inspiring. His love for the game and the crowd is palpable. Truly a lesson in determination.” Her post resonated with fans, garnering thousands of likes and shares, and sparking conversations about the enduring spirit of tennis champions.

 

Monfils’ journey to this point has been anything but straightforward. Once ranked in the top 10, he faced significant challenges, including contemplating retirement around 2020 and again in 2022 due to a severe foot injury and personal struggles. His wife, fellow tennis star Elina Svitolina, played a pivotal role in encouraging him to continue, leading to a resurgence that included titles in Stockholm (2023) and Auckland (2025) .

The Frenchman’s performance against Dellien was not just a testament to his physical endurance but also his mental fortitude. After dropping the first two sets, he dominated the third, edged out a tense fourth-set tiebreak, and cruised through the fifth. This match added to his record of 12 five-set victories at Roland Garros, the most in the tournament’s Open Era .

 

Jaz Agassi’s public acknowledgment of Monfils’ achievement underscores the deep respect shared among tennis professionals and their families. Her parents, both Grand Slam champions, have always emphasized the importance of sportsmanship and resilience—qualities Monfils exemplified in his latest match.

 

As Monfils prepares to face fifth seed Jack Draper in the second round, fans and fellow players alike will be watching closely, inspired by his unwavering spirit. Jaz Agassi’s tribute serves as a reminder of the profound impact athletes can have, transcending generations and inspiring both current and future stars of the sport.
