French Open: Monfils Completes Two-sets-to-love Comeback To Enter Rd-2
Frenchman Lucas Pouille: Gael Monfils suffered a scary fall in the early stages of his first-round match at the French Open, but showed his fighting spirit in a courageous comeback at his home Slam as recovered from two sets down to beat Hugo Dellien 4-6, 3-6, 6-1, 7-6(4), 6-1 in a dramatic battle.
For just the third time in his long career, the 38-year-old came from two-sets-to-love down to win — and for the first time at Roland Garros — thrilling the home crowd in a match that ended past midnight.
In a three-hour, 34-minute thriller, the right-hander completed a comeback by winning three consecutive sets for the first time in a decade, having last done it to beat fellow Frenchman Lucas Pouille in the first round of the Australian Open in 2015.
