Gael Monfils was due to compete in the Norwegian stage in Oslo this weekend. “La Monf” (both its diminutive and its stage name for the occasion) however only made a short trip with a defeat on Friday February 9 against the Australian De Minaur.

The Ile-de-France resident was in fact disqualified following an incident that occurred backstage with the show supervisor. As a result, the Habs had to put away their rackets and give way to replacement Lucas Pouille.
