Video: Monfils Hits Behind-the-Back Beauty and Wins Point vs. Dolgopolov

Gael Monfils knows that variety is the spice of life, and he lives that mantra on the tennis court. Watch as Monfils randomly decides to go for a behind-the-back baseline shot during the second set of his 6-3, 6-4, 1-6, 6-0 victory over Alexandr Dolgopolov.

ESPN’s Brad Gilbert asks “Where did that come from?”

But we know that true genius doesn’t need a reason. No.6-seeded Monfils is through to the third round and will face Philipp Kohlschreiber on Day 6.
