Gaël Monfils after his defeat at the US Open: “It was just crazy”

“How do you come out of a match like this?
It was a great fight, in a great atmosphere. Another incredible experience. Despite all these years, I find it to be one of the most incredible atmospheres on the circuit. Deep inside me, despite the defeat, there is still a good feeling. It was beautiful. These are matches that we want to play. That’s why in the morning you have the banana to go and play in stadiums like that. It was just crazy. Although I am disappointed to have lost this big game. It’s a bit hard…

How do you overcome all the emotions in this kind of encounter?
I try to stay positive, to be in the moment. But I didn’t succeed in the end.

What did you think of Sinner?
He played a little differently than I expected. I thought he was going to hit harder. I found him to be more patient than usual, although he made a few mistakes. It served well even though I returned well. In the important moments he managed not to make the mistake, remaining quite aggressive. He has clear tactical schemes. He has progressed physically. He’s very, very strong. “
