There’s a new tennis power couple, and it is comfirmed—Elina Svitolina and Gael Monfils. The Frenchman was seen in Svitolina’s player box as the Ukrainian powered past Viktoria Kuzmova on Day 4.
After the match Svitolina was caught in an awkward moment when she was asked about Monfils during her post-match on-court interview (go to 1:05 in the video below).
During her press conference Svitolina confirmed the relationship.
“He’s there for me, he’s there for supporting me and I’m there for him as well,” adding, when a French journalist pressed: “Yeah, we are dating, so yeah.”
